Check the following:

1) that there is a libfftw3f.so in one of the paths mentioned in
your /etc/ld.so.conf file. If not, `find` that library, add the path
where it is to /etc/ld.so.conf.

2) that you ran (as root) /sbin/ldconf after installing the library or
making the change in step 1).

All parts should go together without forcing.  You must remember that
the parts you are reassembling were disassembled by you.  Therefore, if
you can't get them together again, there must be a reason.  By all
means, do not use a hammer.
