[Xastir] still trying to install on Fedora 9
Yeah, but here is the interesting part. ImageMagick was already installed on my computer. Not sure why it isn't working but the package maintainer is on the job. He filed a NEEDINFO and I just sent it to him. Well, there's your problem! (right?) 'XPM and/or ImageMagick support have not been compiled in. Isn't Image/GraphicsMagick required to display online maps? Also suggest they use GraphicsMagick over ImageMagick due to the historical problems with a dynamic API. Admittedly I don't know enough to tell if this is relevant, but when I tried to compile (on Fedora 9 - arghhh) from CVS sources without ImageMagick, I kept getting an error about GraphicsMagick even though the GraphicsMagick library was in /usr/lib and /etc/ld.so.conf contained that path: checking for GraphicsMagick-config... /usr/bin/GraphicsMagick-config checking GraphicsMagick/magick/api.h usability... yes checking GraphicsMagick/magick/api.h presence... yes checking for GraphicsMagick/magick/api.h... yes checking for WriteImage in -lGraphicsMagick... no configure: WARNING: *** Cannot find GraphicsMagick library files: Building w/o GraphicsMagick support. *** checking for Magick-config... no When I yum installed ImageMagick-devel the above GraphicsMagick error went away, but I still have no online maps...

So I just found out that the Fedora 9 Xastir package DOES work. Something in my .xastir folder was breaking it. Eric W4OTN [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Yeah, but here is the interesting part.

Sometimes it can be as simple as another package that GM depends on which your package manager dependency checking missed. When I yum installed ImageMagick-devel the above GraphicsMagick error went away, but I still have no online maps... Just an FYI. Xastir looks for GM/GM-devel first. If it is happy with them, it will skip looking for IM/IM-devel. If not, it looks for IM/IM-devel and will set up Xastir to use IM if found. We generally prefer GM over IM because of inconsistencies that we've had with IM in the past. Better to get GM in there if you can, so check your config.log file and let us know what you find. -- Curt, WE7U. archer at eskimo dot com http://www.eskimo.com/~archer Lotto: A tax on people who are bad at math. - unknown Windows: Microsoft's tax on computer illiterates. - WE7U.

I can't get F9 to install on the T42. Still running F8. I have tried several times using a separate hard drive in the laptop and have had no luck.

John, I just filed another trouble ticket [1] in Red Hat's Bugzilla for the latest Xastir package. The person that built the last package said he had the mapping problem fixed.
