EQMod driver repeated crashes

Hi

Terrible weather with the bushfires around Brisbane so I have not had a chance to use the scope for a few weeks. I did a nightly build upgrade yesterday so have the latest build . Running EQ6 Pro using EQMod with ZWO cameras & MyFocuserPro2. Everything was working fine but when I tried to do a quick test that everything was working I got repeated EQMod driver crashes.
I have not changed any hardware so I presume a recent EKOS update may be to blame. I am using ASTAP as solver but this has worked flawlessly from the get go.
I have attached the log. The last time this happened I uninstalled the EQMod driver then reinstalled it and it worked again. This strategy did not work this time. Anyone else having this problem? If it is just me I will work through it.

Cheers,

Mike

Just to let anyone know that I was unable to overcome the EQMod driver crashes on the current nightly build. The only solution currently is to roll back to the last stable build for Ubuntu (KStars 3.3.8).
Use the following to roll back to 3.3.8
sudo apt-get install ppa-purge
sudo ppa-purge ppa:mutlaqja/indinightly
Everything now works as expected.
