[Kstars-devel] KStars bugs status

[Jason Harris]

Hi team,

Since we're now in feature freeze, I thought it would be a good time to 
vanquish all of the open bug reports.  Here's a list of the current 
unresolved (non-wish) bugs:

69818: Empty Sky on PPC   
Status: reported against KDE 3.1.x.  For some reason, this user gets a 
blank screen on startup due to an undefined focus position.

71434: date boxes are too small
Status:  User reports that edit boxes displaying the date in the 
astrocalculator are too narrow to display their contents.  I cannot 
reproduce the problem, even with a very large font size.

77564: planet images overlay in dumped image
Status: user reports that all planet images appear at same position in 
the dumped sky image.  I was never able to reproduce this.

81303: kstars segfaults after loading
Status:  Asked user to update from CVS and try again; no response.

83849: Solar system circles are wrong size
Status: confirmed.  When solar system bodies are displayed as images, 
they are the correct angular size; when displayed as simple circles, 
they are too big.  I'm pretty sure I know how to fix this.

84196: can't focus view in some directions
User gets undefined focus point when requesting "Az=180, Alt=90" with 
the manual focus tool.  Confirmed and fixed, but I am working on a 
better fix.  The user asked to be able to specify any azimuth when 
Alt=90.  This has been suprisingly difficult to achieve.  The display 
seems to always set Az=90 or 270 when Alt=90, no matter what Az was 
requested.  Still working on this one.

So, a lot of these are unconfirmed.  I never know quite how to deal with 
those.
