The better solution is to edit your old xastir config file to point to /usr/local/share. The reason for this is:
The Debian/Ubuntu pre-compiled versions are compiled with a --prefix=/usr, while self-compiled ones do not specify a prefix - and with autoconf, defaults to /usr/local. So, since you had run the precompiled, it wrote it's config file to look at /usr/share/xastir - the new self-compiled version doesn't overwrite that config file, but tries to use it since it's there, and now that you've removed the precompiled, stuff isn't there any more.

I copied /usr/local/share, to /usr/share, and things seem to be working ok. Should I point the config file back to /usr/share, or can I leave things alone? -- Darryl Gibson N2DIY RLU X 182668/379552 "Arms are the only true badges of liberty.
