Thanks for posting these instructions. However, I just tried it and got this error:

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:212 (find_package):
By not providing "FindStellarSolver.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this
project has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by
"StellarSolver", but CMake did not find one.

Could not find a package configuration file provided by "StellarSolver"
with any of the following names:

StellarSolverConfig.cmake
stellarsolver-config.cmake

Add the installation prefix of "StellarSolver" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set
"StellarSolver_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If
"StellarSolver" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it
has been installed.

kstars 3.5.0 includes an integrated plate solver, but requires this library to be installed in order to build.

github.com/rlancaste/stellarsolver

You would build from source and install it in much the same fashion as the kstars source build and install.

There is typically a one or two week delay from the point that a new release hits the main Ubuntu repo, before it reaches the Astroberry repo.

The repository has kstars 3.5 but in my case I had to perform distro update. After using
apt-get dist-upgrade, I got the newest kstars with no problems.

Tried to run update just now to see if 3.5.1 was available, but hit an error:

E: Could not open lock file /var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend - open (13: Permission denied)
E: Unable to acquire the dpkg frontend lock (/var/lib/dpkg/lock-frontend), are you root?

(yes, I used sudo) I have successfully updated in the past.
Rebooted the pi, same result. Suggestions?

This error occurs when there is already one instance of the updater running. However, installation should work after reboot (you kill it),
But also could be a daemon which is started at boot,,, Please, check which applications are running with the task manager and if you see something related to program/dist updating, kill it.

Thanks for the reply. Nothing jumps out at me, but I am not familiar with what should or should not be running at startup.

Sorry, out of ideas

The usual culprit on Ubuntu is unattended-upgrade. But I'm not familiar with Astroberry and that might not exist or has been disabled.
