Perfect, thanks. I'd prefer to delete it all and redo the configuration in
the new install, less chance for problems.

Yes.  Plus depending on whether the Synaptic install put things in the
default locations that CVS will, you may wish to delete your ~/.xastir/
directory and contents as well.

If Synaptic put Xastir's map directory at /usr/local/share/xastir/maps/ then
you can probably skip the ~/.xastir/ directory deletion.  If it put it
anywhere else, then it's easier just to delete your per-user config
directory and let the new Xastir create a fresh one for you.  Be aware that
if you do delete it, your callsign/location/internet connects/etc will need
to be redone in the new Xastir.
