I'm at work, so I have to rely on questionable memory, but it appears that Xastir is looking for the file in /usr/share/xastir/symbols/ when it is most likely in /usr/local/share/xastir/symbols - and as I recall, the binary Xastir provided by Ubuntu installs things in /usr/share while compiling Xastir from source installs things in /usr/local/share. So, I am guessing you switched from the binary Xastir to a newer source based installation, and I suspect there is something left over in your /home/dlarson/.xastir directory that is still pointing to /usr/share instead of /usr/local/share. If you don't need to save anything in your configuration, the easiest way out is to simply delete the .xastir directory and restart Xastir, which will create a new directory with new config files. If you do need to save your Xastir configuration, then it's going to be a matter of figuring out which config file needs to be changed. That's about as far as I can take it from a remote location.
