Description of problem: Xastir is unable to download tigermaps from the internet site. The error message is "libcurl or 'wget' not installed. Can't download file". Both wget and curl packages are installed on my machine. (It appears these packages were not available when xastir was compiled.) Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): 1.9.2-2.fc8 How reproducible: Every time the map is updated. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Select a location in the US. 2. Using the Map chooser, select tigermaps. 3. Zoom in or out on the map. Actual results: none (error message in the console window). Get the default low resolution line map. Expected results: detailed street map of the location is downloaded and displayed in the window. Additional info:
I'm getting the same results. Will be testing Steve AI4QR's suggestion of manually installing wget, curl, and libcurl to see if this solves the problem.
(In reply to comment #1) It appears that I already have wget and curl installed already. I'm thinking it is something upstream during the compiling. Not sure about this, however, but I'll continue to check.
aparently there's an upstream problem with detecting/using libcurl. I've rebuilt the package with wget as a requirement. It should work fine now. http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=42156
I'm using the new package and still having the same problems with 1.9.2-5.fc8.i386.
eric you do have wget installed (it should be picked by xastir automagically. Is this error still true ? "libcurl or 'wget' not installed. Can't download file". Is this still true ? Both wget and curl packages are installed on my machine. If you already have wget installed are you sure you are able to fetch files with the user running xastir ? Please check for wrong settings in local wgetrc file or global rc file, or any unreachable proxy. Also try to manualy fetch tiger map: wget http://tiger.census.gov/cgi-bin/mapper/map.gif Please post any other info that might help me figure this out. Anybody else experiences this with this package ?
(In reply to comment #5) Yes I have wget installed and functioning. In fact if I compile Xastir from source I don't have any problems at all.
I'm having the same problem with the F9 RPM as well. This is a clean install... I've never had Xastir installed on this box. wget works fine otherwise but Xastir is not pulling the online maps.

Per our earlier discussion, after removing every piece of the previous installs of Xastir and then installing the new package I'm still having the same problem.
From the Xastir listserv, it appears that people are excited that Fedora has included Xastir into the repo but also disappointed that they are unable to get the online maps. I just did two clean installs and am still unable to download the online maps.
Eric, could you update me with any error message you get from the console it seems it's reproductibile over here after all.
I'm not getting any error messages. It just doesn't do anything.
please run xastir from terminal with the following: xastir -v 2 and paste your output.

Thanx, please also post the output of the following commands rpm -qa xastir rpm -qa wget which wget

Hello Michael, there is a newer build pushed for testing, for xastir that among other things fixes wget problem. Please try https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=435616 and report back here
I reinstalled from http://koji.fedoraproject.org/koji/buildinfo?buildID=42156 which installs verison xastir-1.9.2-5.fc8. This does fix the problem. I am now getting the maps. Thanks! Mike

The above link just points back to this bug page. Could you post a link to the test rpm? Thank you so much! John Dvoracek -- Temple, TX
