It is on the makefile

-------------------------------------------------------------------
# Special rule for the target test
test:
         @$(CMAKE_COMMAND) -E cmake_echo_color --switch=$(COLOR) --cyan 
"Running tests..."
         /usr/bin/ctest.exe --force-new-ctest-process $(ARGS)
.PHONY : test
-------------------------------------------------------------------

It should be upstream instruction for testing where to find the
shared lib or they are expecting to test after installation.
It is not a problem with automake/autoconf as it is managed properly.

This workaround is relative common in these cases
