configure: error: unable to locate liblwgrp installation`

This was run on a raspbian stretch release: https://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads/raspbian/ dated April 2019
Other packages related to SCR compiled and built without problem. This is a Raspberry PI 3B with an armv71 CPU with 4 64-bit cores.

Note that this appears to build correctly in the context of scr/buildmedeps but not from a git clone, so I suspect a minor configuration/context issue.

Research direction

Start by reproducing the failure with ./configure --with-lwgrp="/usr/local/lib/" on the described Raspbian environment, comparing it with the scr/buildmedeps context. Trace the configure checks for liblwgrp installation and determine why the displayed library files are not accepted. Done means configuration locates the installation successfully without breaking the existing build path.
