There are a few small typos that have crept their way into the new ax25
packages Craig just released.
Firstly if you want to install the files in the "normal" places (not in
/usr/local), the correct way to install libax25, ax25-tools and ax25-apps
is to do:
./configure --prefix=/usr --sysconfdir=/etc --localstatedir=/var
make
make install
Currently libax25 and ax25-apps have slightly inaccurate instructions and
you should use the above instead.
Secondly in libax25 there is a typo in the file pathnames.h. The line:
#define CONF_NRPORTS_FILE AX25_SYSCONFDIR"rports"
should of course be:
#define CONF_NRPORTS_FILE AX25_SYSCONFDIR"nrports"
Thirdly in ax25-apps in the ax25rtd Makefile.am there is also a small bug.
To fix that you should go to ax25-apps-0.0.2/ax25rtd/ directory and apply
the following patch. Note that this requires that you have automake
installed and working so you shouldn't probably do this unless you really
need ax25rtd.

All these and some other minor things will be fixed in the next release.
This is just for the impatient... :-)
