I've undone the change in the repository, so you should not have to do this again. > 4.

Nah. I'll just chalk it up to a mistake to have tried to get rid of the probe. The probe's back and this problem won't surface for anyone else. > On Sat, 27 Jan 2007 11:47:32 -0700 > Tom Russo <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > > > Apparently your Motif library is using it and so xastir has an indirect > > > > dependence on the Xp library that other systems do not have.
