> How can I tell if my OS has 'dbfawk' installed?

Your OS won't every have "dbfawk" installed.  DBFAWK is not something
your OS provides.

DBFAWK is an internal feature of Xastir that depends on the PCRE library and
its development headers.  DBFAWK is enabled automatically at build time when
you configure Xastir if configure detects the presence of the PCRE library
and headers, unless you explicitly disable it with "--without-dbfawk"  
Similarly, it is automatically disabled (and can't be enabled) if PCRE library
and headers are not installed.

You can tell if DBFAWK is built in your copy of Xastir by looking at the
"Help->About" dialog.  If you see "PCRE" and "Dbfawk" in the list of 
"Libraries used: ", you've got dbfawk enabled.

If you don't have dbfawk enabled and want it, you need PCRE installed on your
system, along with its development header files if your OS does things
that way.  Then you need to reconfigure and rebuild Xastir so that it detects
the presence of PCRE and automatically builds its DBFAWK components.
