[plt-scheme] ubuntu compiling plt from source errors

I'd guess that you need to install the Xt devel package, here:

  http://packages.ubuntu.com/breezy/libdevel/libxt-dev

For future reference, you can actually search for this sort of thing 
directly on

  http://packages.ubuntu.org/

The second search box on that page lets you type in the name of a file 
and it'll tell you what packages provide that file. That's how I found 
this package.
