RFE: include the optional telescope servers as a subpackage
Last modified: 2007-11-30 17:11:59 EST
I am investigating using stellarium for telescope control. http://www.stellarium.org/wiki/index.php/Telescope_Control Right now we don't have the open source telescope server applications in Fedora. If I packaged this up as a new package called telescope-server would you be willing to do the review of the package so we can fast-track the process of getting the telescope-server into the tree for use with stellarium? -jef
If you can post me the URL of a source RPM I will start the review process for you.
Here's the review request https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=232585 Feel free to close this ticket out and jump onto my review request as the reviewer. I confirmed this evening that the provided server works with the meade telescope I have access to. stellarium sees the server, and the goto commands drive the telescope as it should. I'm probably going to end up patching the server I use to take safetly limits for positioning, to protect the camera attached to the back of the scope. If I can limit the range of motion, I can prevent the camera from hitting the mounting structure. -jef
Becouse a Review request of the RfE was started, I will close this bug.
