[Xastir] RasPi upgrade continued ...

[Rob Noll]

Interesting find...  FWIW, my Pi is on Jessie and I have the
disappearing-panel problem, and I do think I did an apt-get
update/upgrade/autoremove not long ago.

I've replicated the problem.  Started with a relatively clean Jessie, did
the upgrade to Stretch, logged in to a panel at the top of the screen (ala
Jessie). ran xastir.  lxpanel went away.
~/.cache/lxsession/LXDE/run.log has some rather unhelpful error messages.

for grins, ran lxsession from the terminal window.  Got a different style of
panel at the bottom of the screen.  ran xatir, got several "error in
lxpanel: corrupted double-linked list".

as part of the upgrade process I did an apt-get autoremove, which apparently
removed a bunch of the development packages required for an install, since
there are now .h files missing.

did another apt-get update, only sees 2 sources (used to have ~20?)

this update process is very suspect.  not sure I have a working system
anymore.


IMO, if you have a burning desire to upgrade to stretch, stifle it.
