hmm, but in the Makefile, iniprefix is hardcoded to /etc/jailkit/, and
the code copies the ini files into that directory. So are you sure the
ini files are copied to the right directory?

once we have a variable set in configure that has the location of the
ini files this variable can be used by all executables.
