Description Lukas Middendorf 2009-12-29 01:20:21 UTC 
Version:           1.6.0 (trunk rev. 1066985) (using Devel)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Compiled sources

How to reproduce:

1. Enable constellation lines
2a. carefully move the map to place a star in a constellation directly on an edge
2b. wait until a star reaches an edge (with time running)

Any constellation line that ends at that star vanishes. It reappears afterwards, if the star is no longer on the edge (to the center of the map or outside).
Comment 1 Lukas Middendorf 2010-02-01 22:52:59 UTC 
Still present in KDE 4.3.95, but seems to be fixed in today's trunk (r1083751).

It might be worth backporting to 4.4-branch, but I fear that with all the work done to this part of kstars in the last days this will be non-trivial.
Comment 2 Alexey Khudiakov 2010-02-01 23:06:59 UTC 
It would be highly non trivial since I never tried fix this bug. I only simplified code and removed dead code. It is accidental fix so I don't even know which commit fixed bug.
Comment 3 Alexey Khudiakov 2011-02-21 21:03:40 UTC 
Look like it was accidentally fixed so I'm closing it. Feel free to reopen if it's still present.
