I've been having a lot of crashes lately and would like to run kstars/ekos in the debugger so that I can submit crash reports.

I used to do this but it's been years, and I don't remember how to run it this way. I see the git for the debugger but I need a step-by-step on how to actually run this way.

Running KStars 3.5.8 stable on ubuntu 20.04.3 LTS on amd64 hardware.

Many thanks!

Assuming you're using PPA, then it's

sudo apt-get -y install ekos-debugger

Thank you!

And then to run inside the debugger, do I just run ekos-debugger from the shell?

In case anybody else wants to do this, the procedure is to install as Jasem said

sudo apt install -y ekos-debugger

But then run by typing

ekosdebugger

(without the dash). This starts a GUI from which you can launch KStars and INDI, but which will trap crashes and collect crash data.
