As in a previous message, I have Xastir working now, installed from source.
What is the safest way to change to cvs update

If you've already installed from sources, then you've got all or nearly all the 
tools you need ready and working, plus the libraries Xastir is looking for 
already installed.  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).

Follow the README.CVS file's instructions (or the WIKI page) regarding the two 
CVS commands you need to invoke.
They will create a new subdirectory "xastir" underneath where you are sitting 
in your shell.  Then:

    cd xastir
    ./bootstrap.sh
    ./configure
    make
    sudo make install

And you're done!

Any time you want to snag the latest:

    cvs update

If any files get updated, follow the bootstrap, etc steps above to compile and 
install the new version.
