The IMP binaries (including foxs) link against the IMP shared libraries, including libimp_saxs.so. So in order for things to work, those libraries need to be in your search path. Since you specified /opt/imp as your prefix, you will find the binaries in /opt/imp/bin/ and the libraries in /opt/imp/lib/.
/opt/imp/lib is not in your system's standard library search path. Either reinstall with prefix=/usr or prefix=/usr/local to install the libraries in the standard search path, or add /opt/imp/lib to the search path, either by adding a file to /etc/ld.so.conf.d/ containing /opt/imp/lib and then running /sbin/ldconfig, or by setting the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable to include /opt/imp/lib.
