[Xastir] openSUSE 10.2 CVS Success

[Steve Friis]

What you have below is great. Just one thought here though. In the 
scripts folder there is a script file <get-maptools.sh> that pretty much 
installs everything. Is this going to go away? I think it sure made the 
install easy. Gives you all the needed libraries.
