You should'nt need to edit the configure.in file directly unless you are
doing some kind of hacking. The problem here is that your imlib is in
the wrong place and configure can't find it. To solve this problem there
are often switches that can be passed to configure to customise how it
works. You can find these switches by running:
./configure --help
Usually switches are in the form of --this or --that. There may be a
--imlib-path=/whatever/directory option.
