Observation Planner M101 alternate name M102 was created by Jerry Black

Perhaps it's something I've done, but in recent Kstars versions, I see that in the Observation Planner,when you Find M101, it has an alternate name of M102. I don't where this error in alternate name comes from, or how to correct it?

Thanks

I noticed the same thing. The identity of Messier 102 still is disputed by some though I think most people now agree that it is a separate galaxy. Not sure what the cause of this is in KStars though.
