[aprssig] Latest Xastir Release: 1.4.0, 09/16/2004

[John Ackermann N8UR]

Just to point out, there is a Debian package of Xastir that will install 
without requiring any other searching for libraries, etc. -- the Debian 
package manager takes care of that for you.  I see that the latest 
version in Debian "unstable" is 1.2.0, so it's not totally up to date, 
but it does work...
