[Xastir] Raspberry Pi

Me again!

   I've been running xastir on a Raspberry Pi. I recently upgraded (?) 
to raspbian Jessie ( from Wheezy), and it's giving me grief with the 
build script. The script that worked flawlessly in Wheezy now finds the 
Jessie repo OK, and the first error was libdb-dev (5.1 in the script, 
now 5.3 in the repo). Taking the version number out cured that (as it 
has in Kubuntu). It now comes back with:

   gpsman : Depends: tk but it is not going to be installed
   gpsmanshp : Depends: tcllib but it is not going to be installed
E: Error, pkgProblemResolver::Resolve generated breaks, this may be 
caused by held packages.


   OK, I don't use gps, I config static (I've run this 24/7 on my home 
network and accessed it with KRDC on my Kubuntu machine - Low power! :) 
) so the first (2?) are no problem for me - but they might be for others.
   The E: Error barfed it here - what's up with this? Probably a Noob 
Linux thing?


Hopeful...
Dex, ZL2DEX

That sounds vaguely familiar.  I think I saw that over a year ago in Debian
Jessie.

If you want to be a guinea pig, you can try the version at the link above.
This version doesn't bother with gpsman or gpsmanshp.  I doubt the typical
RPi user would ever need support for those.
