[Xastir] Ubuntu 5.10

Hi gang,

I dumped my old Xastir installation, and grabbed the latest 
CVS. And I'm not having much luck with it.

I printed out the README.CVS file, along with Scott's email 
about setting up Xastir with Ubuntu 6.06, which is dated 8/3/06.

I grabbed the packages Scott said were needed, except the 
python-dev package, which I couldn't locate.

I created the lib.so.conf file also, which is owned by root, 
is in root's group, and has 644 permissions.

 From there, I tried to compile Xastir, and here are the 
results:

darryl at ubuntu:~/xastir$ sudo ./bootstrap.sh
     6) Removing autom4te.cache directory...
     5) Running aclocal...
/usr/share/aclocal/nspr.m4:8: warning: underquoted 
definition of AM_PATH_NSPR
   run info '(automake)Extending aclocal'
   or see 
http://sources.redhat.com/automake/automake.html#Extending-aclocal
     4) Running autoheader...
     3) Running autoconf...
     2) Running automake...
     1) Checking for 'mkinstalldirs'... Found!
Bootstrap complete.
darryl at ubuntu:~/xastir$

So, I followed the instructions in step 5, and was happy to 
see the that webpage told me to skip that section. Which I 
was happy to do, as I don't have a clue as to what it is 
referring to. Though I didn't try the run info ... stuff.

So then:

xastir will be installed in /usr/local/bin.
Type 'make' to build Xastir (Use 'gmake' instead on some 
systems).

I don't have a clue! This is my second try at setting up a 
CVS install, the first one on my FC1 box didn't give me any 
trouble at all.
