No no no. You dont want *ANY* packages from Redhat that Xastir might use.
Installing the entire RH9 system is a waste of diskspace and time. Im
running my Xastir RH9 system on old PC with a 1Gig hard disk.

It's very SIMPLE to get RH9 running Xastir...do the following. If I have a
couple hours in the next couple days I'll write up a DETAILED RH9 install
guide using my laptop as the test machine.

- Install RH9 with the basic server configuration.

- Use rpm -qa and rpm -e to remove *ALL* libraries and packages listed in
the Xastir INSTALL file. If rpm -e says that package is required by some
other package, then remove the other package too.

- Download, compile, install *FROM SOURCE* all libraries and packages
Xastir will be using.

- Compile Xastir

I did this not 4 days ago with a brand new RH9 machine and I was up and
running within a few hours.

I have some experience building automated redhat configuration scripts so
depending on my availability I'll see about writing one up and maybe we
can just point RH9 questions at the script.
