Okay, so it depends on where you installed your built code to.

If you did "./configure --prefix=/path/to/install, it won't work
because we now don't use PREFIX to find and work out the paths.

The code that caused this is in lib389 with the paths module and
defaults.inf. See _get_defaults_loc in lib389/lib389/paths.py .

The reason for the change was that PREFIX was hugely broken. It either
worked from RPM, or it worked with make install: not never both. This
was due to heaps of assumptions being made by us during coding.

So the solution I think is to make it so that if you want a prefixed
install like you have here, we make _get_defaults_loc check for PREFIX,
and if it exists, appends /share/dirsrv/inf/defaults.inf, and
from there, it should all work.

If you want, raise a bug about this and I'll fix it next week first
thing when I'm back at work.
