Re: [Xastir] Map Chooser and map display question on Raspberry Pi

I placed the file on my onedrive cloud storage and the link to download it is 

Xastir 

Unfortunately the formatting of the file changes when I moved into the windows 
environment but hopefully you can switch it back.  Let me know if that does not 
work and I’ll see what else I can do.

Maybe I’ll be able to send it to you via email and then you can forward to the 
list.

Joe,

You could put those long files up on your web server site and send us the link 
to them in a post to the reflector. My thinking would be to make a Xastir 
directory under your ham radio directory on the website but leave the rest of 
the website as it is; unless you want to do some updates to it at the same 
time. Then those that want to look at your configure file can do so with ease.

This permission structure also appears in my other Raspberry pi.  The staff 
permission apparently is used in Raspbian, Debian and OSX at least.

We were wondering if this could be the reason why the geo files do not show up

I ran the configure as you requested and am attaching the resultant
output.

In addition there was the following output which printed in my terminal
window.

configure: WARNING:

configure: WARNING: Your system does not have shapelib installed.
Using an internal configure: WARNING: version.  This may lead to a

[Xastir] Raspberry Pi 'Stretch'- Maps ...

[Dexter N Muir]

I followed my usual method: Lee's (175moonlight.com) script. His latest 
says it works on Wheezy and Jessie. I already have that and it worked 
well. The binary it produced worked through an online upgrade from 
Jessie to Stretch - but that threw out some other stuff I was doing, so 
I did a full re-image (to a larger card). Relatively painless - age is 
dimming my memory capability so I keep an updated reminder list of 
things I need to do (RasPi and Kubuntu) when re-installing. Handy - I'm 
part-way through replacing Kubi-wan to a fresh hard drive too.
   As above, Lee's script. It fell over looking for libdb5.1. I've had 
this before, and cured it by taking out the numbers. On closer 
inspection, there's an if-else clause in there that looks at the OS 
version number. When it doesn't find 8 (for Jessie, which looks for 
libdb5.3) it goes to the 'else' and looks for 5.1 - Wheezy didn't even 
like that at some stage. I took the numbers out of the 'else' line and 
all was sweet. I've advised Lee to remove the clause and take out the 
numbers. 'lidb-dev' gets the right version by default.


   All config went well until Maps. The Onlines don't show up. I've 
checked /usr/local/share/xastir/maps and its subs for permissions, and 
they're all readable by anybody. Re-index ALL maps has no effect. I want 
my OSM mapnik back! It's there ... WH! Gimme!


73, all

I had problems getting latest graphikmagik-dev on pi some time ago, but once I 
did the maps appear. Maybe unrelated but 2 cents.
