[Xastir] Linux Standard Base Test

[Dalen Kruse]

I tried this and it's running with no problems on my system (Mandriva
2006).  I get a message warning me that ImageMagick isn't compiled in,
but I'm assuming that's by design at this point.

BTW, the LSB packages on Mandriva 2006 are LSB 3.0 compliant.
