That directory (except "maps" instead of "map") is for very old
Xastirs.  You need to put things in /usr/local/share/xastir/maps/
(or subdirectories thereof), then do a map index.

What mersion of Xastir are you running?

Check README.MAPS for some ideas on where to get them.  Also check
the Map Pointers link off the www.xastir.org home page.
