Kstars stops abnormally without error in the kstars log, segmentation error.
For now workaround is delete:
/home/pcxz/.local/share/kstars/asteroids.bin
/home/pcxz/.local/share/kstars/asteroids.dat
/home/pcxz/.local/share/kstars/comets.dat
Attach gdb log, where is reported:
...
Thread 1 "kstars" received signal SIGSEGV, Segmentation fault.
0x00005555556c3b25 in SkyObject::translatedLongName (this=0x555558d615e0)
at /opt/Astronomia/indi_ekos_build/Projects/kstars/kstars/skyobjects/skyobject.h:171171 QString translatedLongName() const { return i18n(longname().toUtf8()); }
...
Ok so it looks like memory access error since one SkyObject (which was focused) no longer exists or was not initialized or some stray pointer. Do you get this crash after you reinstall the comets again?
Now I have deleted the files:
/home/pcxz/.local/share/kstars/asteroids.bin
/home/pcxz/.local/share/kstars/asteroids.dat
/home/pcxz/.local/share/kstars/comets.dat
and restarted the program, No problem.
I updated the data on asteroids and comets, from menu: Data->Updates
No problem.
