It's possible that the GM you're using was configured using
"--with-quantum-depth=8"
(the default for GM), whereas Xastir needs
"--with-quantum-depth=16"
If you remove the GM-devel package and install the IM and IM-devel
packages, configure/make/make install Xastir, it should switch over
to using IM instead of GM. Hopefully that'll work for you.
