I did get a 'yes' to everything except GDAL at the end of the configure script (left GDAL out on purpose). Help about shows 'map_caching' as one of the libraries used. Just noticed that the latest version of Berkeley DB available for Ubuntu 12.10 is actually 5.3 - including a dev package, so I probably should have tried that. Version 5.1 seems to be working - is there a way to verify for certain that map caching is functioning in Xastir?
