The file deep_sky.csv is installed with mode 0o600 (readable only by owner (which is root in that case) )

I have checked the amd64 rpm from yesterday and the older amd64 deb in the download section, I have not checked the other downloads. If you unzip it manually you see the wrong filemode on the unzipped file (only this one file, the other files are ok). It will be installed as root with 0o600 into /opt/astap/ and the result is the deep sky annotation complaining it has no database.

sudo chmod 664 /opt/astap/deep_sky.csv will fix it on my installaton but it should be corrected in the installer.

The tar.gz package does not have this problem.

    Thanks for the feedback. The filemode of the file was wrong at the source. Must have happen because I move files between Windows and the Linux virtual machine I'm using.

    I have uploaded the files again with the correct permissions.

    Clear skies, Han
