Hi Rob,
The beauty of the scripting approach is that there's no need to change anything
in Ekos.

Hi Rob,
I just tested my solution with the solve-field.sh and the

And, strangely, it also

Hi Rob,
I was checking the internal wcsinfo against the solution.wcs generated by the
script (attached file), and I found that it's aborting with a message "Illegal

Hi Stan,
Thank you for the update, but I use Mac Ports instead of Homebrew (for
development reasons), so the Homebrew libraries conflicts with my existing Mac
Port libraries.

Maybe the issue is not OS related but, instead, hardware related.

My guess is that we should try to get Astrometry.net to build and work on its
