Ubuntu 10.10 Binary Installation

For the impatient and those that just don't want to bother with compiling from source in order to use a newer version of Xastir, there's a user provided binary package that can be installed with only a few mouse clicks.

Once downloaded, installing the package is as simple as double clicking the file in the file manager (nautilus). (It may be only a single click in Kubuntu)

The package is installed by the GUI installer, 'gdebi', which automatically installs required dependencies.
