On my Windows machine I get an error when plate solving:
2018-07-14T01:20:23 Error: No connection to the internet.
2018-07-14T01:20:23 Image received.

Howver as far as i can tell there is no problem with my Wifi connection (browser working, reporting this bug).
According to this post on the INDI forums:
http://indilib.org/forum/ekos/3446-error-no-connection-to-the-internet-when-plate-solving.html
It is a bug in the QT library that KStars is built against.

Is there anything i can do besides building Kstars myself as described in the post?
Can the library be updated in the next release?

Ok this should be fixed in the next release.
