Hello,

I forgot to email the list, but I already applied a fix to master:

http://quickgit.kde.org/?p=kstars.git&a=commit&h=3b332bc43182a5e9616d47bbfa5164a3aeb5b616

It was a problem with updateFocus() in skymap. The issue is resolved here,
can you guys please test and let me know if that resolved it for you?

Regards,
Jasem
