That looks like the same error that Rick Green reported in another
thread.  I am not seeing it, so I don't know what to think.  Earlier
this evening I built another Xastir VM from scratch with Xubuntu 8.10
in order to help me write the Wiki update, and everything was fine
except a GDAL glitch.  I installed GDAL via get-maptools, but
configure isn't finding it.  To me, though, GDAL is not a big deal.

Done - and btw, it turns out that if one installs autoconf, automake is
installed as a dependency, and the plain automake pkg is actually
1.10, so the new HowTo in the installation notes of the Wiki reflects that.

Yes, I've seen exactly the same thing in Mepis and DreamLinux, which
are Debian based.   There's a gdal binary available as well (for the
newer versions of Ubuntu, Mepis, and DreamLinux), which I have not
tried yet.

Yes, if you follow the wiki, geotiff is installed from source instead
of using the binary package from the repositories.  Using that method,
the headers end up where they are supposed to be.

FWIW, I follow the Ubuntu 7.04 Wiki fairly closely on my Debian (v4.0 
Etch) systems (two desktop and one laptop installation) and xastir works 
first time, every time. geotiff headers are installed in /usr/local/include.

Not entirely true.  The configure options are stored in config.log and 
config.status, and if you simply do a "make" when configure has changed,
configure will be rerun with the same options you used last time.  Or you
can cut/paste from the comment line of config.log that captures the 
line that you used last time.

Or you can do what I do: keep a file in your build directory called 
"reconfigure" and then run ". ./reconfigure" instead of remembering the 
options you needed to get it done.

It's very annoying that the packagers of the Ubuntu (and Debian?) geotiff
package chose to place the header files in a nonstandard location.

How'z about creating symlinks in /usr/include to the real spot
instead?  That way it picks up any updates and Xastir's configure
can still find the package.

Another alternative might be to tweak the xastir update script in
your distributed VMWare image to include the configure option and
insist that people use that to upgrade to the latest CVS.

For my own use, it's probably 6 one way and half a dozen the other.
If I do the configure mod, I'll lose it every time I rebuild Xastir.
For a pre-built VM to be distributed to others, I think I'll just
install geotiff from souce as shown in the wiki.

You might want to update the Wiki.  It is badly in need of being updated.

This is probably not best practice, as those copies will not be updated if
the package is updated.

Better practice would be to tell configure to add /usr/include/geotiff to
the search path, which is easily done:
   /path/to/configure CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/include/geotiff"

Then you don't have orphaned copies of geotiff headers, and configure can
still find the ones that the package installs in the nonstandard place.

Hi Roger and list readers,

Fyi, I tried compiling Xastir 1.95 from CVS on a clean install of
Xubuntu 8.10, and there were no problems.  With respect to package
names, the only difference between the 8.10 and 6.10 as documented in
http://www.xastir.org/wiki/index.php/HowTo:Ubuntu_6.10 was the
libdb4.7-dev package that needs to be installed instead of
libdb4.4-dev.

Regarding the small difference between Ubuntu 6.10 and 7.04 in the
wiki, I followed the 6.10 procedure, which installs automake1.9 and
libxp-dev instead of automake and x11proto-print-dev.  I found that
there is no need to install autoconf in Intrepid/8.10 as it is
installed as a dependency when automake1.9 is installed.  Also,
X11proto-print-dev is installed as a dependency when libxp-dev is
installed, which I assume was the case with Ubuntu 6.10 as well.

Fyi, I also installed the geotiff packages from the ubuntu repository
instead of using the get-maptools script.  Knowing from recent
experience with other Debian based distros that the header files get
installed in /usr/include/geotiff, I copied them into /usr/include
before compiling Xastir, and it seems happy with that.

Thanks for filling in the gaps.
While waiting last night (the xastir website and I suspect the list
server being down again) I did a recompile and the error did go away.
Now I need to find a UK map that I can make work.
Might have to run up my laptop over the weekend which still has Ubuntu
8.04 on and compare how things run as there have been a few problems
with other Ham apps on 8.10

When removing these, it's generally necessary only to remove the -dev packages,
not all the run time packages.  The run-time packages are often required by
other packages and will break things if you remove them (as you noticed),
but you should only have a single -dev package, and it should match the 
highest (latest) version of the collection of run-time packagess you've got
installed.  So you can have both libdb4.7 and libdb4.6 packages, but you should 
only have libdb4.7-dev.

Xastir's configure procedure looks for the highest numbered release of
Berkeley DB, and links against that.  The -dev package that is installed has 
got to match that version.

Most (if not all) Ubuntu packages that depend on Berkeley DB of a particular 
version only require the run-time, not the -dev.  -dev packages are for codes 
you'll be building from source.  The dev packages are the ones with the 
header files used to build other codes from source, the run-time packages
have the shared libraries and any associated applications.

OK all I have now is libdB4.7 and 4.6 which I left because synaptic
wanted to rip out a lot more stuff most of which looked like it was
still required.
But I still get the same mention of 4.4 whe i start xastir

Was there an implied "and re-complile" in there somewhere?
or have I missed something else?

  Most of the packages will not be changed, but some may
  be different.  One in particular is libdb4.4-dev, which was
  already up to libdB4.6-dev in Ubuntu 8.04.  It may still be
  version 4.6 in 8.10, or it could be a newer version.

At least now we all know it's libdb4.7-dev.

Interestingly the above works if the launcher is set to launch as
"application in a terminal" but
env LANG="en_GB" /usr/local/bin/xastir
is needed if just application.
And I found the ICON.

May have over trimmed a bit so will add back that Ubuntu 8.10 is the OS

The /etc/environment file mentioned in the Ubuntu HowTo page seems not to matter
anymore in Ubuntu 8.04.  That is, it seems never to be read and the environment
is never set from it. (You can check --- do an ls -lu on the file and you'll
find that it's never read on reboot and login.)

To get the same effect, you can create a launcher that does:

 env LANG="en_GB" xastir 

instead of just "xastir", and that'll do the trick.  It'll change the language
setting ONLY for the process running xastir, and the annoying X messages go
away.

Ever since I upgraded to 8.04 I had to do this.  I have yet to find any 
file in /etc that allows me to customize the language properly, nor have I
figured out (or really tried to figure out) what file gets scribbled when
one uses the GUI interface to set the language (which does not give you the
option to drop the UTF-8 from your current setting).

If you figure it out, lemme know, because it's one of those annoyances about
the upgrade I simply haven't bothered to work through, just work around.

Additional info.
Tried changing from
LANG="en_GB.UTF-8"
to
LANG="en_GB"

and logged out and back in the result was the same
So I tried 
LANG="en_US" still the same.

I then checked the FAQ which says reboot rather than log out.
tried that and the problem is still the same.

So either the is another file the sets the LANG or something else has
changed.

I guess if I had set up a Launcher I would never have seen it so I can
live with it but on the other hand it will be wasting a few processor
cycles.

Getting a UK map to replace the outline pat of the world map is probably
a more important goal.

Well I have managed to compile 1.9.4 on my Ubuntu 8.10 system.
Nearly fell at the last but remembered from fldigi testing to blow away
the old ./xastir folder. Was geting a map error and launch was stopping.
I am getting warnings like the one below. But it's not crashing the app
"
Warning: 
Name: create_appshell text_output
Class: XmTextField
Character '\41' not supported in font.  Discarded.
"
But I half remember reading something about that and will go look later
(but I off back to work for a wile in a few minutes so if some kind
person would like to point me in the right direction I wont complain ;-)

The HowTo for 6.10 /7.04 was followed and then the read me files form
the tarball were followed once it was opened.

Re: [Xastir] [Fwd: Re: [linuxham] Xastir]

2008-11-10 Thread Lee Bengston 
The 1.94 source package (I assume you downloaded the stable version)
requires various libraries to be installed before it will compile.
The binary has been build for Ubuntu as is, so it is expected to work
without installing any additional packages.

http://www.xastir.org/wiki/index.php/HowTo:Ubuntu_6.10

The link above has a HowTo that should be close to what you need.

One suggestion: instead of using apt-get install, use adept or
synaptic and search for the packages starting with the section labeled
 "start installing packages".  If you don't find the package using the
exact name in the HowTo, use part of the name, and see what it finds.
Most of the packages will not be changed, but some may be different.
One in particular is libdb4.4-dev, which was already up to
libdB4.6-dev in Ubuntu 8.04.  It may still be version 4.6 in 8.10, or
it could be a newer version

The HowTo includes the CVS procedure, but the same packages to any any
source code version of Xastir.

Have fun,

Lee - K5DAT

I didn't try a download yesterday when I sent that message, but
sourceforge appeared to be up - unlike the xastir.org site, which I
could not access then, but I can now.

Thanks Lee,

I did forget that step. Is the server back up? Last I checked the 
tarball wasn't downloading. It would just time out.

Hi.
I'm the He mentioned.
I have the 1.9.3 binary now running.
But for a compile of 1.9.4get loads of complaints from the make stage
ending in an error 2 last line.
I notice there are a few problems with Ubuntu 8.10 (upgraded from 8.04)
which I will read through before jumping at the CVS route.

Hi Steve,

Fyi, the Xastir development tarball can be downloaded via the link below:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/xastir/

One comment, if he does download from CVS, he will need to execute the
bootstrap.sh script.
