John,
I just filed another trouble ticket [1] in Red Hat's Bugzilla for the
latest Xastir package. The person that built the last package said he
had the mapping problem fixed. I just installed it and it fails.
Hopefully this will be fixed soon.

yum install xastir on Fedora 9 still installs a Xastir that does not work with
maps on this Thinkpad T23. I know some changes were made in the Fedora 8
repository for the Xastir package, but when I asked if those changes were made
to the Fedora 9 repository, no answer.
Thus I am trying to install the old way, and when I get to downloading the cvs
source, I am denied:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~]# cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/xastir login
Logging in to :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2401/cvsroot/xastir
CVS password:
cvs [login aborted]: connect to [xastir.cvs.sourceforge.net]:2401 failed: Connection refused
I tried no password per the wiki, and I tried my email address as per usual anonymous logins.
BTW, an earlier part of the wiki doesn't work with Fedora 9. The package management is quite
different in Fedora 9, and there is no Applications>Add/Remove Software option. Instead
we have System>Administration>Add/Remove packages but you have to specify individual
packages, not "development tools:. Below does not exist:
If by chance, you didn't install Fedora with the required development tools,
start the 'Add/Remove Software' tool from the Applications Menu. Choose
'Development' and make sure you have the following groups installed:
* Development Libraries
* Development Tools
* Gnome or KDE development (depending on your desktop of choice)
* X Software Development
I've heard of folks successfully building Xastir on Fedora 9, so I guess I need
to find the source somewhere other than cvs?
