Xastir depends on GraphicsMagick, which doesn’t seem to have been updated to handle the fact that openmp doesn’t require gcc now.  The original change to Xastir for gcc was done as the build broke when GraphicsMagick added the "compiler:gcc-c++11-lib” dependancy.

Once GraphicsMagic is updated, I can update Xastir with that change.

I’d much rather not have to install gcc8 just to compile Xastir.

Carl.
