So it really isn't an Xastir bug, it's a Debian *Magick packaging bug..the maintainers of those two ecosystems need to update their packages to remove the Jasper dependency.

<begin snark>
And since Debian has been absorbed by the Borg Collective that is systemd, another option would be to wait until systemd takes over all the *magick functions and switch to that.
<end snark>
