I took a look into the Debian build process and it looks like that sysconfdir is /usr/etc, because the beagle-crawl-system is moved from /usr/etc to /usr/share/doc/beagle/... So, yes, sysconfdir is set to /usr/etc, which is bad, at least on a debian system.... writing a bug report. BTW, Is here an easy way to check whether beagle would index a file? Something like beagle-file-info foo.tex ?
