Depending on your system, /usr/local should work too.

What distro / desktop do you use?

It is generally not recommended to install anything in the /usr/ prefix,
as it can clash with stuff installed by your distro's package manager.

It sounds a bit like its not finding the source. I just checked the dist
tarball, and the xgsch2pcb-48.png is there. It might be the install
program is failing to create the necessary parent directories, although
this works for me.

Can you:

make maintainer-clean
./autogen.sh
./configure
make 2>&1 > make.log
sudo make install 2>&1 > make_install.log

Please email me config.log, make.log and make_install.log privately.

Does anything get installed in /usr/local/share/icons ?

What is the output from:
find /usr/local/share/icons/

And:
/usr/bin/install --version

Thanks!
