I installed those (and perl-BerkleyDB) and ran ./configure from the xastir

Running "make" generated no errors. I had to run "make install" in superuser
mode and I had no errors.
I started xastir and the maps looked the same ( without dbfawk support).
Looking at help>about pcre, dbfawk, and imagemajick are NOT listed. Since
they were listed after running ./configure, what happened?
Look at the compile date in Help->About. Does it match the
time/date you just compiled it? Perhaps you have another Xastir
binary installed elsewhere on your system and it's finding that one
first.
The normal default install location is /usr/local/bin/xastir. If
you see a different location via one of these commands, that might
be your problem. Did you install another Xastir earlier via RPM or
some other method?
"which xastir"
"whereis xastir"
Also: If you have two Xastir's on your system you may have trouble
with your Xastir config files if you switch. It doesn't mix and
match well when you move things around. The best solution in that
case is to stop Xastir, move or blow away your ~/.xastir directory,
then start Xastir and let it build a whole new directory and fill in
defaults. You'll have to reconfigure everything then.
