I am running xephem 3.5-2, from testing (I think), and it runs fine.
Suggest you use the CD for the Win version and just get the deb
package.  I seem to recall that a while ago I had used xephem-smotif,
so I check the dependices for xephem and see

VT1 root-3-Buddy:~# deps xephem
xephem
  Depends: lesstif1
  Depends: libc6
  Depends: xlibs
  Conflicts: <xephem-smotif>
  Conflicts: <xephem-dmotif>
  Replaces: <xephem-smotif>
  Replaces: <xephem-dmotif>

That might be the problem(?)
