My apology, it was unintentional.

I believe the last time I checked, it was still 1.9.4. We're on 1.9.8 now.
It is possible that they are at 1.9.6 -- if so, they bumped it shortly before
the 1.9.8 release.

The latest version of xastir in 'buntu is 1.9.4-3build1<br>

There was a recent issue with xastir in 'buntu in that raster maps
displayed as black tiles. Apart from installing the xastir package on a
clean Kubuntu 9.10 installation to confirm the problem, I can make no
other comment. I don't know if that issue has been resolved, nor do I
know if it applied to 9.04, 8.10 or 8.04, the only 'buntu releases I've
used. My previous experience with the xastir deb package was many years
ago under Debian v3.0 (or was it v2.1) where it worked just fine.<br>
The bug related to GraphicsMagick and 8-bit Quantums has indeed been fixed. It
was fixed between 1.9.6 and 1.9.8.
