Dave,

I can CC the Ubuntu-Hams list if you want, but fyi this is not a
binary intended for launchpad.  It's built from pre-compiled source
code using dpkg-deb as opposed to building it the 'debian' way.  I
find it much easier to re-spin a new deb package when a significant
change to Xastir comes along using the dpkg-deb method, and if I ever
get around to scripting what I'm doing manually now, it will be
extremely fast.

Also fyi, the new deb package I just posted is a replacement for the
package that was previously posted in July (which was a replacement
for a previous version from either May or June), so it's not like I
did something brand new here.
