In my experience, x5250 doesn't even look in /usr/local/lib. I have to manually "setenv LIB -L/usr/local/lib" or I can't build x5250.

I'll work at cleaning everything up and installing tn5250 0.17.4....

That seems very strange since configure doesn't think you have macro support or enhanced 5250 support in your version of tn5250. I think it is likely that you have an old version installed in /usr and a new version installed in in /usr/local. That would explain why configure can't find enhanced support (it is likely using the libraries in /usr/lib) but running tn5250 -version from the command line shows 0.17.5 (/usr/local/bin is probably before /usr/bin in your path).

Be sure to check for any installed lib5250.so or lib5250.a in /usr/lib and /usr/local/lib. You could do something like the following to check your entire system for any occurance of a file with 5250 in the name:

locate 5250

the design of operating systems. please pass them along to redmond
