There is a README for CVS but not for SVN in the Xastir directory. And no reason for one yet. You can't do multiple types with one code repository. In other words, we're still using CVS, and only CVS, until they force a change to SVN on us or we request it. I'm not sure how the author does it, but DX Spider can be updated (at least for downloading updates) using either CVS or GIT. I switched to GIT when I migrated it to my Sheevaplug.

About all you need extra are: autoconf, automake, cvs Safest is to just create a new directory for the CVS version. That way you don't mess up the other (just in case, until you feel comfortable with CVS and feel like deleting the other directory and sources).

Re: [Xastir] So, a question on all this building...
On Feb 5, 2010, at 10:04 AM, Tom Russo wrote: Because the Ubuntu repositories routinely stick at old versions. As I understand it, the package maintainer is neither an Xastir user nor a subscriber to any Xastir list. In fact, I thought I read recently that the package maintainer was no longer actively maintaining it, and they were looking for a new one. If you want point-and-click installation, you are at the mercy of the binary maintainer. If you want current code, you need to roll your own. I believe the last time I checked, it was still 1.9.4. We're on 1.9.8 now. It is possible that they are at 1.9.6 -- if so, they bumped it shortly before the 1.9.8 release. The version of Xastir in the latest (9.10) Ubuntu is actually a recompilation of the version contained in the Debian testing repository (the released version of Debian has 1.9.2). This is the case for many of the Ubuntu packages. If 1.9.8 gets into Debian testing soon, it might make it into the next release of Ubuntu (10.4 in April).
