The checksum os the downloaded file is:
Stephanes-Mac-mini:Downloads stephane$ shasum ekos.ova 
1aa44139c87103ef2392631c85ba69da818e01e5  ekos.ova
Stephanes-Mac-mini:Downloads stephane$

supposed to be: aa14edec198f81e6cdb7ff1d61018abd according to
www.indilib.org/download/download/5-vm/7-ekos-vm.html


EDIT:
scrap that previous answer, used the wrong command doh....
Stephanes-Mac-mini:Downloads stephane$ md5 ekos.ova 
MD5 (ekos.ova) = aa14edec198f81e6cdb7ff1d61018abd
Stephanes-Mac-mini:Downloads stephane$

The download on my Mac mini was successful, I was able to import tha ova file. Not sure what the hell happened earlier.
Going now to test that VM and report of any bugs if any, stay tuned...

so far so good !!!!

Steps:
imported the ekos.ova to VirtualBox with no issues this time.
started the VM after removing the USB which was causing issues on my machine.
logged in and started Kstars without issues.
done a apt-get update / apt-get upgrade then rebooted the VM.

All seems to be OK.

Quick silly question, how can I be sure that I am running the latest bleeding Kstars please?
This is what a dpkg -l reports:
indi@ekos:~$ dpkg -l | grep kstars
ii  kstars-bleeding                       5:14.12+r4977.175~ubuntu14.10.1          amd64        desktop planetarium for KDE
ii  kstars-bleeding-data                  5:14.12+r4977.175~ubuntu14.10.1          all          data files for KStars desktop planetarium
indi@ekos:~$

That's the latest KStars. I'll still working on the astrometry.net package issue though, so hopefully tomorrow it should be resolved. astrometry.not works OK if compiled, there is something funny in the packaging part which has elluded me thus far.

Couple of issues I've spotted:

From the menu "Data / Download new data" you get the following error:
Loading of providers from file:http://edu.kde.org/kstars/downloads/providers.xml failed
I can hit that URL in Firefox from within the VM.



Right click on any stars and select "Show SDSS (or DSS) image" will give you the following error:
Information -- Kstars
Could not start process Cannot talk to klauncher: The name org.kde.klauncher5 was not provided by any .service files.

In the Ekos 1.12 VM, I can say that the previously reported bug about the "Show SDSS (or DSS) image" has been fixed.
However, the "Data / Download new data" is not.

I got a similar error message from the VM1.12 when i tried to import it. I tried to download it twice. Each time I got the same md5:
7439a1ce0b20a6bf51ea021f616deb56

The file both times was ~113MB. I think firefox is not downloading the entire file. Odd that it stops at the same place each time. I am using debian jessie with firefox.
