The error occurs on first install of botan, specifically due to placement of libotan-2 into /usr/local/lib without running ldconfig afterwards.

To make this seamless the installer script should run ldconfig as root after the installation of libotan-2 Alternatively a user can run -

sudo make install sudo ldconfig
