[Kstars] Bug with calculator tool

Hello!
I need to calculate the ephemerides for the year 2018. I tried with the calculator built into Kstars, but it bug. I would like to know if it comes from me, my computer, or if you also find the same thing?

That's how I proceed: In the menu bar, tools> calculator, then in the calculator module, I choose solar system, conjunctions. I set the dates as of 1st January 2018 00:00 until 1st January 2019 00:00. I choose between the planets and the moon, a gap of 10 degrees max, I leave conjunction and I ask to calculate. From there, every time, the software crashes completely and I have to restart it ...

I specify that I have the latest PPA version of Kstars (updated every day ...)
