[Xastir] Snapshot problems

[Lee Bengston]

Mike,

It sounds like the kubuntu iso I distributed.  I duplicated the
problem and fixed it by installing libxpm-dev and rebuilding Xastir.
(Thanks, Curt, for identifying libxpm)  Assuming you are using an
installation that came from the Kubuntu image that I posted, here is
how I got snapshots to work:

  sudo apt-get install libxpm-dev

  cp -r /home/a-user/src ~/

  cd ~/src/xastir

  ./configure

  make

  sudo make install

Not surprisingly, the same issue is present with either the ubuntu or
kubuntu images.

Although I did back out OpenOffice in order to make room for Xastir
and its dependencies, I don't think I removed libxpm-dev.  It appears
that libxpm-dev needs to be added as a package to be installed in the
HowTo for Ubuntu 9.04/9.10 in the wiki
