Initial Comment:
Upgrading from 2.3 to 2.4 on Opensuse11.0 I find:
Prompts for minicom -s (OK minirc was in /etc - now wants to be in /usr/local/etc - although the man page still states /etc) but when invoked by root with -s still gives error of missing minrc.dfl, please invoke as root with -s (I copied the file across to get it working).
When calling as normal user with "minicom abcd", does not see the user's .minirc.* files and prompts again for root to create a global "minirc.abcd".
These bugs can be worked around by judicious copy of minrc files.
