I followed these instructions on the CVS Update portion of the site:

/Here are the commands to do if you want a clean build of the latest
sources, and want configure to recheck all the libraries and header
files that Xastir needs: /

This is not the text in the "Updating Xastir" section of the Ubuntu 10.04 document (http://www.xastir.org/wiki/HowTo:Ubuntu_10.04). Which wiki page are
you reading (post the URL)? That could be where you're going wrong.
Wow...Never saw that one.

This is the page I was working from...

http://www.xastir.org/wiki/Notes:CVS
Ah.  Well, that would explain all the headaches you're having.  The
Ubuntu-specific one would have served you better, as it lays it all out
in a simple step-by-step process precisely tailored to the exact system
you're using. The page you referenced is one of the "General Notes" and is more of a wikified version of a document that comes with Xastir source giving
general information about CVS (README.CVS in the source tree).

To close the loop on this...I had a box here with a virgin Ubuntu 10.04 OS installed on it. I followed the instructions to the tee just as Tom had stated, and it worked. No failures, operated as scripted.

Many thanks to Curt and Tom for their direction and patience. Lesson learned...make sure I have the proper instructions for the OS I have in hand. 73 all and look forward to working with the group.

One other issue I wanted to note on this and guess I'm not totally out of the woods yet, the successful test I did yesterday in loading Xastir 1.9.9 was on Ubuntu 10.04.

Today, I made the attempt to load on Lubuntu 10.04 and received a failure at the point where you install Xastir. After typing ../configure, I received "bash: ../configure: No such file or directory."

With Lubuntu being a "light" version, is it possible that some necessary files are not available to work at the same level as Ubuntu?
