Antti Kuntsi posted a comment on discussion Bugs and issues
Close to dead, and in two parts. First off, the old Astrometry.net Cygwin packages were so out of date and full of potential security issues I had to pull them offline. The FAQ on has an alternative way to get it working using the 0.8 test build, and if you're running Windows 10, then the Windows Subsystem for Linux might also serve as a possible part of a better solution that the old cygwin packages. Second, my trusty old dev setup let out the holy smoke, and the dev tools used to make AT don't...

You probably need to be able to generate gnomonic projection. At least PixInsight has a script for generating realistic catalog based star fields with many different projections that should work.
-
The maintenance for current version is pretty close to not-there. There is a plan for a rewritten new version, but as AT gets developed effectively only on starry nights the current climate isn't helping.

The solver lives in the Cygwin world and doesn't understand Windows paths. Since your data is under the cygwin_ansvr -directory, you should be OK with "/usr/share/astrometry/mydata/" as the index location path. //Antti

You can get the individual files from Astrometry.net directly: http://broiler.astrometry.net/~dstn/4200/

Yes, you can start AT without building into an exe, "python AstroTortillaGui.py" should do the trick. Hadn't heard about DCC, and the current AT has been on the proverbial back-burner for quite a while. I've been hoping to have time for AT2 re-write addressing the compatibility issues of using Python to talk to ASCOM and other components as well as provide a scriptable interface. That work has been hindered greatly with AT 0.5 already working well on my own setup :-) --Antti

Yes, that is all that needs to be done. --Antti
