Hi Liz...the message that Dave has mentioned was probably mine
i installed Ubuntu 12.10 on a computer that had Ubuntu 12.04 and was
showing problems...
when i installed Xastir in the upgrade o/s i found it worked ok but
couldnt get the OSM maps to come up...after nearly tearing my hair out i
decided to change from Imagemagick to Graphicsmagick....
that was the trick...no more map problems
dont know why the problem as i was using Imagemagick under Ubuntu 12.04
ok.....funny things happen with distros

Liz,
Look in message archives for 16 October 2012 and message titled "OSM
Maps Solved".
Dumping image-majick and loading Graphics-Magic is the answer. (sorry
about the spelling)
It was also the answer for me as well.

Currently it is not possible under Debian to compile a version of
xastir which supports all map types.
The Debian packaging system will not allow the concurrent install of
all the dependencies.
To install libmagickcore-dev means removing libgeotiff-dev &
libtiff5-dev
Trying libmagickcore-dev from experimental has a dependency on
libpng15-15 which is not available from the repositories.
I used one from openSuse factory, converted with alien, for this
purpose.
libtiff4-dev was installed by the package manager to supply the
dependencies for libmagickcore-dev.
I'm not sure where in the Debian bug reporting system this gets
reported, but it will prevent a newer Xastir version entering the
Debian system until the libmagickcore-dev dependencies are revised.
