Thanks for the reply. The problem was due to the controlcharachters for 
cr/lf.

After it worked fine.

But I had problems with the get-maptools.sh part of Your instruction

I have sent a query to this list about it.

I couldn't see how to do this:"

"This means you have to remove the line referencing "proj-4.4.9" 
(because we installed it via apt-get already)"

How much shall be removed ?.

I couldn't find this:

" #WARNING WARNING WARNING
 # On any system that uses GCC 4.x as its compiler, it is probably necessary
 # to uncomment the stuff between here and the next "else".  If you see
 # an error message of the form"

--snip----

I got Xastir installed with the xastir that follows Kubuntu 7.04b.

Will I benefit anything installing per Your instruction ?. Better maps or so ?.

Well I live in Denmark, and US maps is not useable here.
