I only had to install libgeotiff from source at the command line.  Fedora 7 is brand new - updated to recent packages - with nothing else except Xastir.

Stephen,

I just installed the current CVS of Xastir on 3 different F7 boxen with 
no issues at all. I followed the Fedora CVS howto on the wiki site - 
step by step and had no problems at all.

I suspect - but don't know for sure - that you haven't modified the 
/etc/ld.so.conf file or not run /sbin/ldconfig as directed in the howto(?).

http://www.xastir.org/wiki/index.php/HowTo:Fedora

Following the howto instructions, at the end of ./configure I get:
Building with AX25 ................................. : no
Building with Festival ............................. : yes
Building with GPSMan ............................... : no
Building with GraphicsMagick/ImageMagick ........... : ImageMagick
Building with libproj .............................. : yes
Building with GeoTiff .............................. : yes
Building with GDAL/OGR ............................. : no
Building with ShapeLib ............................. : yes
Building with pcre ................................. : no
Building with dbfawk ............................... : no
Building with map caching .......................... : yes
Building with rtree indexing ....................... : yes
----------------------------------------------------------
Building with ErrorPopups (Old Method) ............. : no
Building with libgc (Debug) ........................ : no
Building with profiling (Debug) .................... : no
Building with Linux Standard Base .................. : no

 From there, make and make install run with out issue. Xastir on F7 is 
running fine here.
