No, setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH before running configure is the right approach.

LibGGI needs LibGII, and therefore configure tests if LibGII is
installed and usable. If LibGII is not in the dynamic linker's path
it is not usable and it's the job of configure to tell you that.

What you describe above sounds very weird though. Please give the
exact error messages.
