Myself and many others have had these linker issues and you can find posts in the forums where users have gone as far as wiping the HDD to get this fixed. Copying the contents of /include/SFML/ to /usr/local/lib instead of the SFML folder itself has fixed the issue for three other users I've told to try this.
