If you installed libgeotiff with Synaptic (instead of via source as the wiki page tells you to do), you will find that the person who put together the Synaptic package made the geotiff headers install in a non-standard place (/usr/include/geotiff/ instead of /usr/include). Xastir doesn't look for geotiff headers there, but *does* detect the presence of libgeotiff.a This causes a build failure in map_tif.c instead of a configure failure. In order to work around this, you have to add an additional configure option to add a compiler flag. If you do: /path/to/configure CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/include/geotiff" (where /path/to/configure is the directory where configure lives, sometimes "./configure" depending on how you build) and re-issue the "make" command, then you'll find that map_tif.c doesn't give that error message again. -- Tom Russo KM5VY SAR502 DM64ux http://www.swcp.com/~russo/ Tijeras, NM QRPL#1592 K2#398 SOC#236 AHTB#1 http://kevan.org/brain.cgi?DDTNM "Argue for your limitations and sure enough, they're yours." -- R.
