Yes, "contrib" repo should be plugged in.
It's either duplicating (uncommented) entry for
"Compact/2.3 ALTLinux main" substituting "main" with "contrib"
and then pushing "Update" button in Synaptic, or doing this in an
xterm:
echo "rpm [alt] ftp://ftp.altlinux.com/pub/distributions/ALTLinux/Compact/2.3 ALTLinux contrib" >> /etc/apt/sources.list
apt-get update
apt-get install XFree86-devel
as root ("su -" will yield that given user's shell and root's
password).
It's really an oversight "contrib" wasn't included at least as
commented-out line into default sources.list.
If I'm missing the point and it's not Compact 2.3, then clarify
/etc/altlinux-release contents :-)
