I am using Debian Unstable.  Unfortunately, I am at work and cannot
get to my home computer to check the exact versions, but it is the
latest version in unstable.

I use dpkg-buildpackage or apt-get --compile source to build the
source packages.  The configuration fails when it discovers that the
libwrap library is not there.  However, it is there.  I believe that a
previous post stated that I need the headers from libwrap-dev.  I will
try that and see if it works.

Thanks,
