[Xastir] map problem

I'm having map problems and wonder if someone could suggest where my
problem is coming from.  [Xastir is V1.8.2 on RedHat 2.6.9-42.0.2.EL.] 
It has been working fine (except for wx maps) for over a year until I
tried to fix the wx map display.  Everything seems to work except I only
have a grey screen with stations appearing but no map.  The
map_index.sys  and selected_maps.sys seem to be there but xastir isn't
finding them.  Thanks.

Here is a sample session from a terminal:

Built-in map types:
      gnis   USGS GNIS Datapoints
       map   APRSdos Maps
       map   WinAPRS/MacAPRS/X-APRS Maps
       pdb   PocketAPRS Maps

Support for these additional map types has been compiled in:
       geo   Image Map (ImageMagick library, many formats allowed)
       geo   URL (Internet maps via libcurl library)
       shp   ESRI Shapefile Maps (Shapelib library)
       xpm   X Pixmap Maps (XPM library)
       ddf   Spatial Data Transfer Standard (SDTS)
       rt1   US Census Bureau TIGER/Line
       s57   International Hydrographic Organization (IHO) S-57
       tab   MapInfo TAB
       mid   MapInfo MID
       mif   MapInfo MIF
       dgn   MicroStation DGN
