[Xastir] 1.9.4 and problem with new Ubuntu 10.04

[Lee Bengston]

Sorry about not giving a heads-up on permissions of the shell script.
That sounds like something that needs to be added to the Wiki.  I'm
not using Ubuntu these days, so I hadn't actually tried the script.
It just looked like a nice way to automate installing from source.  If
things are crashing right after the script starts running, it doesn't
sound like Xastir itself is crashing your computer 'cause at that
point it is far from installed.

Regards,
