Hmm -- did you carefully follow the instructions in ipd218 "Installing
Icon on UNIX Platforms"?
1) make CopyLib Target=directory
where directory is the location that you want the iconc auxiliary files
to live;
2) patchstr iconc-location directory/
where iconc-location is where iconc currently is, and directory is the
directory that the auxiliary files live in. Note the mandatory slash
following the full path name to the auxiliary directory.
To shamelessly borrow from ipd218.doc:
"For example, if iconc is moved to /usr/local/iconc and the files needed
by iconc are placed in the directory /usr/local/icon/iconc.lib, the
patching step is
patchstr /usr/local/iconc /usr/local/icon/iconc.lib/
Or are you sure you're running the iconc in the new location?
(Does linux have a "which" command?)

The "make Configure name=platform" step copies many platform specific
macros and configuration details into the src directory. So you have
to run make Configure again if you alter any of the files in the
config/unix/<platform> directory.
