Could be a multitude of reasons here but Kbuntu is a nitch Ubuntu derivative so 
you might be better to join a few other mainstream lists for help as well.
For application specific issues, it's always best to join that specific list.. 
like Xastir.  You're in the right place for help.
Help so far has led in good directions - Thanks! :)

No.. there are lots of people but I've personally found that most Ubuntu users 
are mostly pre-made package installers. Not as many people build
their own stuff.  Of course that's an over generalization but it's more times 
than not, true.

No.. I don't think so.  The previous issue was to install the require 
GraphicsMagick packages per my previous message.  Did you do that and then 
re-run ./configure?
Yep - _and_ deleted the old build. Still NBG.

You might want to use "apt-get" as it will show more details and output
that you easily can cut & paste into email threads for help.
apt-get is what the script uses. Did you look at it? Been that, done there.

There seems to be a bit of the (latest?) GM missing in repo. Trying apt-get remove and purge of GM packages and re-installing... no difference, still NBG heading for NFG :(
