Hey guys,

Unfortunately, the 3.6.0 release was being done just before I left on vacation, so I was unable to build it and we had to use the craft version since there was an issue with my script before I left. When I came back I looked into a couple of issues and I think this issue was because the craft version is now being built with MacDeploymentTarget = 10.15. The reason they give in the comment is "As projects start to require c++17 we are now requiring 10.15" as shown here:

invent.kde.org/packaging/craft/-/blob/ma...ettings.ini.template

My script is still set to build to build with MacDeploymentTarget = 10.13 as shown here:

github.com/rlancaste/kstars-on-osx-craft...gs/CraftSettings.ini

I also managed to fix my build script as well, so I rebuilt the dmg today and uploaded it. Please check to see that it works on 10.13 and 10.14 again. If not, then I should probably clean out my build directory and build again, but hopefully the issue is resolved.

Thanks for testing in advance!

No, it should be called kstars-3.6.0.dmg. If it has all that other stuff in the name then it was built by craft.

Sorry I should say it was built by craft on the kde binary server. Technically my script uses craft to build kstars as well, but with different settings on my own machine and under the control of my script.

Hello Jean,

I took a look at your crash report you posted and it says you are running 12.5.1. If that is the case, the change I made would not affect it, as I stated the issue I was addressing was that the kde binary server was not building for older versions of MacOS. This must be a different issue. Can you say more about what you did that led to a crash, more detail about your system, or any more details about what happened? Had you run previous versions of KStars and do they still work? I would suspect that maybe something might have gotten corrupted in your data directories and that should be easy enough to test and fix.

Thanks,

Rob

Hello,
Thank you for your answer.
I installed it for the first time.
I never installed olds versions.
It crashes during start time.
I never did the app interface.

I willl try to make a screen picture but the crash is fast.
Juste n’oublie click the app icon, the app start and crash.

What data could be corrupt?
Anything I could try?

Have a good day.

Ok yes if you haven’t installed it before, then that probably isn’t the problem. Just trying to narrow down the cause.

Can you try running it from the MacOS Terminal and see what prints out?

Launching Kstars 3.6.0 (from Finder) then launching INDI server plus EKOS, from within Kstars, allows use of Cmd-F, and/or Pointing>Find Object... without a crash.

When you quit EKOS, Cmd-F and Pointing>Find Object... still works.

Quit INDI server, then use Cmd-F or Pointing>Find Object...: crash!
