I'd also recommend setting aside the current ~/.xastir directory and letting the latest Xastir recreate a new one from scratch.
Something like: Xastir: File->Exit cd mv .xastir .xastir.old Start up Xastir If there are things you want to snag out of the old Xastir config files you'll have the old version there to refer to. Any time you switch between a pre-packaged version of Xastir and a compiled version of Xastir, in either direction, you should perform the above steps. The programs and files get installed in different places, and the above assures the config files point to the correct files.
