In any case, I can not quit the software, all famous keys are useless: q, esc, ^C, ^X ...

In most case, the software won't show anything usefull, just garbage on screen. See log1

In some rare case, if I start it from a console located in a particular monitor (I have 6 monitors, this will work in only one of them), I can get a welcome screen, and a map of the sky, but that's all. I know there should be options (because I have paid the Android version that also deeply sux), but all I can see are strange garbage. And I can not quit exit or cancel the app.

The only way to quit the app is to ...
killall stellarium

So, the package is just unusable for me.

Oh, I found an other way to kill it: press F11 to quit full screen, then it comes down to a windows, and my window manager will offer me a button to close it. Works in both cases.

By the way, I have removed Stellarium because it has too many bugs at too many levels. It's not just Gentoo, I have also tried Debian, and Android, and all 3 have ... too many bugs. I have rarely such a broken app. Maybe Xorg 1.5 or Mozilla >=3.0 or TB >=2.0 have ever been ...
Comment 9 Mr. Bones. (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2012-08-14 05:12:54 UTC
it's CANTFIX without proper bug reporting.  reopeon if you decide to revisit.
Comment 10 DEMAINE Benoît-Pierre, aka DoubleHP 2012-08-14 19:34:09 UTC
CANTFIX != DONTWANTTOFIX
when you can tell what's missing ...

Anyway, Gentoo never dared fixing any X issue I ever had.
