I wanted to tryout the PHD2 external guider system with the CCD simulator and found a problem that crashes KStars (2.8.3).
Simply put when PHD2 is started as an external guider, KStars will crash if I use the capture button from the EKOS Guide panel.
It appears that ordinarily the Capture and Loop buttons are supposed to be unselectable and greyed out. However they become selectable when the mount is slewed.
I've only tried this with the CCD simulator, and not an actual camera.
