[Xastir] Pi scripts

Lee, FYI    I've just updated my Kubuntu install at the rest home (I spend a week there each couple of months - respite for my wife). The update invalidated the previous install, so it was a necessity.    Your Pi scripts could use an update: I copied the if - fi block for xenial 16.04 and
