[Xastir] Ubuntu 10.04 proj package

Fyi, the standard proj package in the Ubuntu repository appears to
have been built correctly.  The installation notes in the Wiki for
10.04 still use the work-around that applied to previous versions of
Ubuntu, but it looks like they don't need to.

I ran the little test above from a clean installation of Ubuntu 10.04
that had just been updated by installing a new deb (binary) package I
had put together for Xastir.  The deb package had pulled in proj as a
dependency.  So proj works, and - even better - Xastir 1.99 with OSM
support works.

I'm kicking myself for not looking into how to make deb packages
sooner, because it turned out to be simpler than I expected.  I have a
deb for Ubuntu 10.04 now and also one for Debian Lenny (tested and
found to work on Mepis 8.5).  I'll post them sometime tomorrow for
anyone who cares to be a guinea pig.
