[Xastir] Compile problem...

[Gerry Creager N5JXS]

It's been my experience that having both on the system actually was not 
a problem.  I suspect you've got some failure to have registered 
libraries in '/etc/ld.so.conf'.

One thing I've noted with the RH systems (insufficient debian experience 
to comment on it) is that some of the dev RPMs were incorrectly 
configured in that they didn't place the includes where they should have 
been and I had to go in and soft-link or copy .h files into the correct 
tree locations.
