libdpstk is the display postscript library. Diplay PostScript was removed from xorg. All programs that previously were linked to use display postscript needed to be recompiled. The thing you had to hold back on Cygwin was xorg, because ImageMagick was built to require libdpstk, and there was no ImageMagick package maintainer to rebuild it. Apparently very recently ImageMagick got a new package maintainer on cygwin, and it got rebuilt -- no longer requiring you to hold back xorg. Apparently, though, GraphicsMagick is still in that state. Either pitch GraphicsMagick on Cygwin (if xastir's the only thing that's using it), downgrade xorg to the previous version, or force xastir's configure script to ignore the installed GraphicsMagick. -- Tom Russo KM5VY SAR502 DM64ux http://www.swcp.com/~russo/ Tijeras, NM QRPL#1592 K2#398 SOC#236 AHTB#1 http://kevan.org/brain.cgi?DDTNM "And, isn't sanity really just a one-trick pony anyway?
