Since a version of Xastir exists in the Ubuntu repository, it will always show up in Synaptic. If you edit the update-xastir script to use "checkinstall" instead of "make install" the package manager will recognize your self-compiled version. Or you could just let the package manager think that you don't have Xastir on your system. Since the script installs it in /usr/local/bin, there should be no conflicts. _______________________________________________ Xastir mailing list [email protected] http://lists.xastir.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/xastir
