[Xastir] cvs update

[Orrin Winton]

Curt, here is the state of things with me, trying to update xastir:

First, please look at this:  after i did the new make and make
install, and ran xastir, i checked in the Help or About and it said
Xastir V. 1.1.4; libraries used:  @(#)GNU/LessTif Version 2.1 
Release 0.93.41.

Is your latest revision (with "receive with AGWPE") V. 1.1.4?  If
not, then my make/install failed or isn't being run when i type
xastir &.

And it's not obvious to me how to tell xastir to use the agwpe.  In
the interfaces dialog nothing appeared.

Also, on MAKE when it was finished i got the following:

[lots of stuff] ...
... /bin/ld: cannot find - llcms
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [xastir.exe] Error 1
make[2]: leaving directory '/home/Orrin Winton/src/xastir2/xastir/src'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/Orrin Winton/src/xastir2/xastir'
make: *** [all] Error 2

Then, on MAKE INSTALL finished & i got the following:

[lots of stuff] ...
... /bin/ld: cannot find - llcms
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[1]: *** [xastir.exe] Error 1
make[1]: leaving directory '/home/Orrin Winton/src/xastir2/xastir/src'
make: ***[install-recursive] Error 1

I wonder if having ImageMagick-5.5.6 in there is causing the error;
i seem to recall seeing a note saying don't use 5.5.6.  If so, should
i get rid of ImageMagick-5.5.6 (all files?  something in the config
or make files?).

Thanks for your help.
