I am running a Debian based distro and have updated my xastir, installed dev

When starting xastir I get this response
*Built-in map types:
gnis USGS GNIS Datapoints
pop USGS GNIS Datapoints w/population
map APRSdos Maps
map WinAPRS/MacAPRS/X-APRS Maps
pdb PocketAPRS Maps
Support for these additional map types has been compiled in:
geo Image Map (ImageMagick/GraphicsMagick library, many formats
allowed)
geo URL (Internet maps via wget)
geo URL (OpenStreetMaps via wget

shp ESRI Shapefile Maps (Shapelib library)

BUT.... I still cannot see a selection for OSM maps
What am I missing. Please help.
Looks good so far!
Try reindexing your maps. Map->Configure menu. There should have been some new
"maps" installed in /usr/local/share/xastir/maps/Online, like:
OSM_tiled_cycle.geo
OSM_tiled_mapnik.geo
OSM_tiled_osmarender.geo
OSM_tiled_skiing.geo
OSM_tiled_topOSM_0_relief.geo
OSM_tiled_topOSM_1_contour.geo
OSM_tiled_topOSM_2_features.geo
If you're not seeing these, even after reindexing your maps, then you probably
have your Xastir config files pointing into the binary location Debian uses,
while Xastir sources install into a different location. Check your
~/.xastir/config/xastir.cnf file for paths that don't start with
/usr/local/share/xastir and changed them.
We have no control over where packagers of binaries decide to put things, so
when you switch from binary packages to compiling Xastir from sources, or
vice-versa, you end up with your Xastir config files pointing to the wrong area.
