ZWO problem on Mac with Kstars 3.5.1

[Robert Lancaster]

Hey guys, just a quick update on this.  I think we are going to rebuild for 3.5.2 very soon.  I also was just informed the other day about an astrometry.net <http://astrometry.net/> GPL2 vs GPL3 licensing issue in their code which is also included in StellarSolver.  Dustin Lang made a change in astrometry.net <http://astrometry.net/> the other day to fix it and I updated StellarSolver’s astrometry code to reflect his update.  Right now I am waiting for confirmation from the folks who raised the issue to see if the changes we made satisfy them.  That is the cause for the delay.  I’m now pretty well caught up on work so I should be able to build a new version of KStars whenever we are ready.  My understanding is that 3.5.2 is coming in just a few days, so we might just wait for that.  Will that work?  I am really sorry about the delay, I know I said I would do this a month ago, but at the time I had a whole lot of work to do.

Thanks,

Rob

I am a physics teacher and we had to transition to hybrid teaching from remote and it also was close to the end of the marking period so I had a lot to finish up.   Now that we are in the 3rd marking period, I should have more time and can probably do it this week.  Sorry about the delay.

I don’t think it was any actual issue with the driver, so I should be able to rebuild it and not have a problem.  I can probably do the rebuild on the weekend.
