Very few Xastir users have a need for the GDAL library.  I'd suggest
configuring Xastir with the --without-gdal option if you can do
without it.  About the only thing I've done somewhat regularly with
GDAL was use the TIGER/Line vector map files directly for testing,
but it's so slow to do this that I try to avoid it.  A few other
obtuse vector map formats are gotten to with the GDAL library in
Xastir, but 99% of the users out there will never need them.

    ./configure --without-gdal
    make && sudo make install
