Sounds great,
I still use the image2xy as provided in the astrometry.net package (as I don't want to take care of managing all the libraries attached to the binaries) and than solve-field. That's it. So far I did not had any issues. One hint: I looked around the last hour how things are made in different packages and the the Astrometry package including astrometry.net which is provided by cloudmakers (many thanks for that really nice package and all the support for Mac's !!!) also does not use python, but just calls image2xy and solve-field.
