Both sci-astronomy/kstars-3.2.3 (stable) and sci-astronomy/kstars-3.3.8 (~amd64) show the same problem, when dev-qt/qtquickcontrols is not emerged: The package builds, installs and merges without problems. Program starts fine. But when the "What's interesting?" feature is activated from the UI, the program segfaults (see attached kstars.stderr log). The reason appears to be a runtime dependency on dev-qt/qtquickcontrols (as evidenced in kstars.stderr logs). After emerging dev-qt/qtquickcontrols (in my case 5.12.5, current stable), and restarting kstars (both 3.2.3 and 3.3.8), the "What's interesting?" feature works fine. I would suggest adding dev-qt/qtquickcontrols as a runtime dependency. I've attached a patch to that effect (kstars-3.3.8.ebuild.patch) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge kstars (either amd64 or ~amd64, doesn't matter) 2. start kstars 3. right-click on some celestial object, and select "View in What's interesting" Actual Results: kstars segfaults, and the stderr dump shows it expects qtquickcontrols (see attached kstars.stderr) Expected Results: The "What's interesting" panel should open to the right of the main view, and show basic data and some information about the selected celestial object.
Created attachment 597908 [details] terminal output from kstars, showing the expected dependency, and segmentation fault
Created attachment 597910 [details, diff] patch to add runtime dependency to dev-qt/qtquickcontrols
