[Xastir] Raspberry Pi 'Stretch'- Maps ...

[Dexter N Muir]

I followed my usual method: Lee's (175moonlight.com) script. His latest 
says it works on Wheezy and Jessie. I already have that and it worked 
well. The binary it produced worked through an online upgrade from 
Jessie to Stretch - but that threw out some other stuff I was doing, so 
I did a full re-image (to a larger card). Relatively painless - age is 
dimming my memory capability so I keep an updated reminder list of 
things I need to do (RasPi and Kubuntu) when re-installing. Handy - I'm 
part-way through replacing Kubi-wan to a fresh hard drive too.
    As above, Lee's script. It fell over looking for libdb5.1. I've had 
this before, and cured it by taking out the numbers. On closer 
inspection, there's an if-else clause in there that looks at the OS 
version number. When it doesn't find 8 (for Jessie, which looks for 
libdb5.3) it goes to the 'else' and looks for 5.1 - Wheezy didn't even 
like that at some stage. I took the numbers out of the 'else' line and 
all was sweet. I've advised Lee to remove the clause and take out the 
numbers. 'lidb-dev' gets the right version by default.

    All config went well until Maps. The Onlines don't show up. I've 
checked /usr/local/share/xastir/maps and its subs for permissions, and 
they're all readable by anybody. Re-index ALL maps has no effect. I want 
my OSM mapnik back! It's there ... WAAAAH! Gimme!
