Earl: You should not need to delete anything. To get it working on Kubuntu, you should only need to install one package using apt-get: sudo apt-get install libdb4.4-dev Then you have to re-configure, recompile and install xastir. No deleting of directories is required. >From other answers you've gotten, I guess you could also use db4.5 instead of db4.4 (I didn't realize they'd bumped the revision up again) --- if you want to try that, simply replace "libdb4.4" with "libdb4.5" in the apt-get line above. Installation of libdb and its development headers (both accomplished by the above line due to the -dev headers package depending on the library package) is part of the instructions on the "HowTo:Ubuntu 6.10 and 7.04" wiki page. If you followed those instructions and already installed the libraries there must be something else going on. When you run configure, if the correct libraries and headers are installed, you should see this at the end of the configure run: xastir 1.9.1 has been configured to use the following options and external libraries: [...] Building with map caching .......................... : yes If it says that, then "make && sudo make install" is all that's left. If it says "no" there then either you didn't install libdb4.x-dev (for some value of x) or it's installed but not properly detected by configure. The answer to why is in the config.log file that configure produces in your build directory --- if you still have trouble, just post that file and we should be able to see what's going on.
