Bizarre. When I tried to build on 9.10 with the 9.04 instructions that lacked xorg-dev, Xastir wouldn't even compile (X11.h wasn't installed). xorg-dev appeared in all previous versions of the Ubnutu instructions, so I assumed it was an accidental omission. 9.04's dependencies must have pulled pieces of it in that 9.10's didn't. Odd. At any rate, xorg-dev should be listed, regardless, and has been for a few days. -- Tom Russo KM5VY SAR502 DM64ux http://www.swcp.com/~russo/ Tijeras, NM QRPL#1592 K2#398 SOC#236 http://kevan.org/brain.cgi?DDTNM In some cultures what I do would be considered normal. -- Ineffective daily affirmation _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
