SUMMARY *** NOTE: If you are reporting a crash, please try to attach a backtrace with debug symbols. See https://community.kde.org/Guidelines_and_HOWTOs/Debugging/How_to_create_useful_crash_reports *** While acquiring dark frames Kstars attempted a meridian flip and failed with the following log entries: 2022-09-05T23:03:54 Meridian flip completed. 2022-09-05T23:03:54 meridian flip failed, retrying in 4 minutes 2022-09-05T23:03:53 Meridian flip slew started... 2022-09-05T23:03:53 Meridian flip started. 2022-09-05T23:03:32 Meridian flip waiting. I stopped the Scheduler and after the four minutes had elapsed the meridian flip was successful, at which point I restarted the Scheduler. I'm guiding with PHD2, but was not guiding at the time because I was taking dark frames. I've consistently had the same failure while guiding. This was the first time that I thought to stop the Scheduler.
This actually occurs whenever PHD2 is guiding, even if not using scheduler. Eg my mount never flips if guiding with phd2. Using Linux and 3.6.0.
