[Xastir] xastir problems

[Denton K Larson]

I have it running now. I did have to delete the src also it had a closed 
lock on it when I looked at it.

All is good.

You must have done the cvs checkout last time as root.  You probably have a ~/src/xastir directory and contents that are owned by root.

You can try (as a normal user):

      cd ~/src
      sudo rm -rf xastir

to get rid of of your src/xastir directory so that the cvs checkout command will work again for you as a normal user.
