Hello! In latest beta (v0.19.3.17695 - https://github.com/Stellarium/stellarium-data/releases/tag/beta) we signed installer (thanks for SignPath.io) for Windows and now we need testing it. Could you help us check it?

Mark, please check it: https://github.com/Stellarium/stellarium-data/releases/download/beta/Stellarium-0.19.3.17636.zip

You need INDI or INDIGO on linux

Please see help window in the Telescope Control plugin

Hi! I need help from Mac owners - could you check digital signing and notarization of latest beta of Stellarium - https://github.com/Stellarium/stellarium-data/releases/download/beta/Stellarium-0.19.3.17629.dmg ?

You need field stop diameter (not field stop position!).

See ~/.stellarium directory (Hint: Stellarium 0.19.3 User Guide, page 52) For example: http://www.celestrak.com/NORAD/elements/visual.txt

Please show screenshots from Stellarium in OpenGL and ANGLE modes. Would you check the font rendering when font scaling is disabled?

Could you send me your landscape and log.txt from Stellarium? Or just for experiment: please try rename "stargazers home.png" into "stargazershome.png" and change maptex name to stargazershome.png too.

The name of .ini file should be landscape - landscape.ini

This trouble related to OpenSSL library in version 0.19.2 - 3 workarounds for it: a) using ssleay32.dll, libeay32.dll and libssl32.dll from version 0.19.1; b) download and using those DLL's from developers of OpenSSL or c) downloading and using beta version of Stellarium. In any way proposed beta shouldn't be affected by this issue.

Hello everyone! We plan release version 0.19.3 in second half of this month and we want to get some help of testing Stellarium. Today I've published version 0.19.2.17442 and this is final beta - the next public package will be named 0.19.3RC1.

Which errors? O_o

Yes and no - just read the proposals by installer
