Look in src/config.h and src/tn5250-config.h for the section that says:
/* Define this to the system config directory. */
#define SYSCONFDIR "${prefix}/etc"
On my system, that line is the problem. It really should read
/usr/local/etc instead of ${prefix}/etc. Presumably, this is a bug in the
configure script or in autoconf... just changing this and recompiling
solves the problem.
Are you having the same problem, or a different one?
