That's something I overlooked in scripting the install for manpage.
Comment 2 Jason Vas Dias 2006-04-13 20:39:43 UTC 
This bug is now fixed with xterm-212-1.FC{4,5,6} - the paths in the xterm 
man-page are now all correct.

Patch for minstall.sh and man-page to fix man-page paths for Modular X11

For the benefit of the upstream maintainer :

It turns out that the man-page paths  come from the "APP_DIR" environment
variable during the build, and this has to be set to the app-defaults 
directory location, prefixed by the "$RPM_BUILD_ROOT" - so paths were
getting into the man page prefixed by $RPM_BUILD_DIR :-( 

I fixed this by applying this patch to the 'minstall.sh' script that generates
the man-page for FC-5 / Modular X11 - FC-4 (Un-Modular X11) patch follows.

But if you added the configure option
   --with-app-defaults=$apploaddir
that should work.
