[Xastir] Send message function broken on Ubuntu Linux?

Curt / Tom,

Not sure if it is Xastir or a Gnome on Ubuntu 14.04.04 issue.

As recently as this past summer I was able to send a message to a APRS
mobile from my laptop via APRS-IS.

Now I can bring up the screen and get the cursor in the correct field
but when I type a message it does not show up on the screen.

I refreshed Xastir with the included update script this morning; but I
am not sure of when this function stopped working.
