I had this problems just this week in Kubuntu 8.1. I found the answer here: ___ https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/xastir/+bug/293873 Binary package hint: xastir Ubuntu 8.10 Xastir 1.9.2-2.1 Online map sources will not work. Xastir complains about missing libcurl and or wget, and won't fetch maps from online sources. Both libcurl and wget are installed. Actual error text is "libcurl or 'wget' not installed. Can't download file" Rebuilding from package source seems to fix problem. <snip> Richard Green wrote on 2008-11-17: #3 Found the problem. Ubuntu (and I'm told other Debian derivatives) installs libgeotiff in a non-standard location, so when compiling under ubuntu, an override is necessary at the './configure' step: ./configure CPPFLAGS="-I/usr/include/geotiff" Reference: http://www.xastir.org/wiki/index.php/HowTo:Ubuntu_8.10 Secondly, since the 'make install' installs the binaries in a different location than the ubuntu package, it was necessary to `rm -R ~/.xastir/` and let xastir rebuild it on its first invocation. ___ I redid everything per the instructions at http://www.xastir.org/wiki/index.php/HowTo:Ubuntu_8.10,and it all worked. 73 -Jim -- Ham Radio NU0C Lincoln, Nebraska, U.S.S.A.
