Dexter,

Using the package manager, it found the following graphicsmagick RPM's.

graphicsmagick  (version 1.1.10)
libgraphicsmagick-devel   (v1.1.10)
libgraphicsmagick1   (v1.1.10)

Hopfully the screenshot of the configured repositories I sent you
directly will help you get to the graphicsmagick packages.

I installed all 3 of the above with ImageMagick already installed, and
configured using the July 7th Xastir Development tarball.  Xastir
picks GM over IM if both are installed.  I did have to install an
additional package that is not in the HowTo, which is xfontsel
(version 1.0.2).  I encountered a Make error without it.

Anyway, I'm thinking installing graphicmagick may be the easiest way
forward to get around your imagemagick problem.  My new compilation of
the July 7th tarball seems to be fine with GM in Mandriva 2008.1.

This applies only to 2007.1 - it is installed automatically as a
dependency in 2008.x - the HowTo says to skip this step for 2008.

Yes, selecting libxp-devel will auto-select libxp6 as a dependency

The HowTo says libopenmotif3-devel, which is version 2.23, which
will avoid a bug in 2.3.0.  libopemotif3 will be installed also as a
dependency.  If you installed version 2.3, though, it's not a
showstopper.

The HowTo says libax25_0-devel - libax25_0 is installed automatically
as a dependency.  My Mandriva 2008.1 is finding these rpms OK.

libmagick-devel is normally what you want, which is version 6.3.8.9.
This is one of the differences between Mandriva 2008.0 and 2008.1.
Selecting libmagick-devel normally installs the libmagick1
package as a dependency.   I believe the problem is that
the 6.4.1 version you installed from source is causing a
conflict. (see below near your configure results)

> - unsatisfied djvulibre  (too new?)
>  libcurl4 (no -devel) 7.18.0

The HowTo says libcurl-devel for 2008 not libcurl4-devel
The version is 7.18, yes.

>  libshapelib1-devel - Not present - shapelib-1.2.8-1.i586 cannot be

The HowTo says libshapelib-devel for 2008 not libshapelib1-devel.
On some of these you appear to be looking at the 2007.1 packages
instead of the 2008 versions.  The shapelib version is 1.2.10

>  libpcre-devel 7.6
>  libdb4.6-devel 4.6.21

The above are correct - Mandriva 2008.1 has libdb4.6 and 4.6-devel
vs. db4.5 in the 2008.0 version.

My Mandriva 2008.1 found libproj0-devel, version 4.6.0, and it
installed libproj0 version 4.6.0 as a dependency.

>  libgeotiff1-devel - No package

That's a change from Mandriva 2008.0 to 2008.1.  In 2008.1 you want
libgeotiff-devel, which is version 1.2.4.

the main thing that needs to be fixed is Imagemagick.
I think the problem is the 6.4.1 version you installed
from source doesn't match the 6.3.89 development
package in the repo.  Can you find an imagemagick
6.4.1 development source package and compile that?
Otherwise, if the 6.4.1 version can be deleted, then
the 6.3.89 packages can be installed.

I had the same problem, until I figured out that with my filter to

 I had discovered that a while ago, so I converted to the 'a' filter

[Xastir] Mandriva 2008.1

2008-07-08 Thread Dexter N Muir

Given a fresh install of 2008.1, using KDE:

Source .tgz extracted to directory xastir, terminal opened there

 ./configure
 
 Failure, looking for Motif

 install lesstif (liblesstif-devel) as above

 ./configure

 looks OK, but can't find or use ImageMagick

 make / su / make install works, and xastir runs, but no raster maps.

   Tried GraphicsMagick instead (1.2.3 from source code, no rpm)
   ./configure looks OK, but only static libs. Try anyway...
   'make' fails, needing 'EXTERN.h'
at /usr/lib/perl5/5.10.0/i586-linux-thread-multi/CORE
   What gives here?

   Back to ImageMagick (this time from source 6.4.1)
   ./configure looks OK, but
   'make' fails, needing 'EXTERN.h' same as above
   search reveals this is part of perl-devel-5.10.0-13, so install as
above
   ./configure looks OK, and this time also shared libs! Hopeful!
   make, su, make install OK, 'display' works!

 Back to xastir

 ./configure still can't find or use ImageMagick
 - libmagick-devel does not seem to be there. See 6. above.

   After several tries, I investigated 6.3.8.9 and 10.7.0 - they both
seemed to provide the same files, but 6.3.8.9 is putting some of them in
a different place.

Yep.  Unfortunately we didn't use CVS early on, we sent patches to

Two things:

Subscribe to the Xastir-Dev list and check out the new Wiki on the

we'll be directing more energy towards the new project and less to

Tell us:

Did you compile Xastir from sources or install an Xastir binary?
That tells us whether somebody else made all the library/helper-app
choices and you might be missing some, or whether you made the
choices.  It also directs our path a bit as to a possible set of
solutions.

Is anything displayed in the Xterm that you start Xastir from?  If
you're not starting it from an Xterm, try it now so that you can see
the text.

In the startup text, does it mention either "curl" or "wget"?  Does
it mention either GraphicsMagick or ImageMagick?  Does it say that
internet maps are enabled?

What does your LANG variable say ("echo $LANG")?  Try setting it to
"C" and then running Xastir in that shell.  This sets up the C
library read/write functions so they operate properly for our
config files and such.  If you're running a BASH shell, type:

export LANG=C

Did you reindex your maps?

Giannandrea., KC2GJS.  He created it.  I don't think he monitors
this list anymore though.  After he started it, several of us jumped
on it and it's been a rotating cast of characters since then.  Thank
Frank for putting it under an open-source license too.

If anyone wants to play with xastir-0.1.0.tgz, I have it.  A few
years back I tried to collect all the old versions I could find.
Perhaps we should set it up with an autoconfig so people can run the
original Xastir...

These are the earliest ones I have:

xastir-0.1.0.tgz
xastir-0.1.1.tgz
xastir-0.1.2.tgz
xastir-0.1.3.tgz
xastir-0.2.2.tgz
xastir-0.2.6.tgz
xastir-0.2.7.tgz
xastir-0.2.9.tgz
xastir-0.3.0.tgz
xastir-0.3.3.tgz
xastir-0.3.4a.tgz
xastir-0.3.6-2.tgz
xastir-0.3.6-3.tgz
xastir-0.3.6a.tgz
xastir-0.3.6.tgz
xastir-0.4.4-20010304.tar.gz
xastir-1.0.0.tgz

I'll admit to not paying much attention to this one.

How sane is the implementation, and is it something that can be readily parsed?

Jason's OT rant of the day:  an OpenTrac network is long overdue!

With more and more people adding frequency information to their status text, I
find that I would like to display this information on screen.

How difficult would it be to add this data to the "Filter Display" menu and
allow it to be displayed on the screen?

Rerun "bootstrap.sh" in your source directory and rerun-configure in your
build directory.  fcc-get was removed, and bootstrapping will fix Makefile so 
it doesn't look for that file anymore.

do you have a position-dependent filter?

I had the same problem, until I figured out that with my filter to
only show me stations near my position (the r filter?) I needed to
send a position report for the filter to have enough data to work.

 I had discovered that a while ago, so I converted to the 'a' filter where 
I explicitly declare the bounds.  But yesterday, I found that even an 'a' 
filter, or even the unfiltered 'firehose' feed was silent until I entered 
my passcode.

Looks like another problem has cropped up.  As soon as I can get a few 
free cycles I'll be looking at this today.

I am still nor seeing them. Is it possible some regions are on and 
others like ours here is still disconnected? Not sure what you send us.

Re: [Xastir] wms radar

2008-07-08 Thread Richard Polivka, N6NKO
Contrary to previously published reports to the contrary, Gerry WILL 
take vacations.


This just points out to the lack of redundancy in systems and their 
presentations. AFAIK, there is no redundancy for WXSVR or Gerry's 
servers (direct copy).


If you look back in the email archives, there was a string of emails 
concerning using the NOAA RIDGE system. A couple of us came up with the 
necessary .geo files to use the radars, both local, regional, or 
nationwide. I keep several .geo's programmed up and switch to a 
different feed when there are issues.


I am waiting to see if the NWS posts the upgraded radar images for use 
from the NEXRAD upgrades.

2 LDAP servers got unhappy, then the big NFS server got locked up (and 
had a pair of SMART disk errors, one on each of two striped RAIDs).  
The box 'mesonet.tamu.edu' couldn't get authentication info AND 
couldn't access images from the NFS server.  Another NFS server had 
system disk block errors.  And a 13TB RAID shelf had a single drive 
128-byte block error.


I'm never taking vacation again.
