Description Ferrante Enriques 2024-02-27 19:09:17 UTC
On a recently upgrade Kstars 3.6.9 stable when non-guide dither pulse is enabled the scheduler hangs and the sequence is aborted.
The log simply reports:

It was first reported on Kstars 3.6.5 (https://github.com/indilib/indi/issues/1908) but in a next release fixed.
It happens again in 3.6.9
