Hello Curt,
if you have a xastir.spec file for 10.0, please just send it to me, and I will
compile the package and integrate it into the repository.
But you will need to be a little bit patient, because the next 4 days I'm on
holidays...
73 de Tim, DG7GT
P.S.: I will drop a notice on the suse-ham-e list when new packages are ready
for download....
