I have the problem with it: "CCD driver does not support World System Coordinates".
You can try my open project Astronomy Linux

You'd have to wait a couple of days until all the drivers in the PPA get updated.

I know it's been six years.. but some strange reason mine stopped working.
[2021-09-12T15:21:39.959 MDT INFO ][ org.kde.kstars.ekos.align] - "World Coordinate System (WCS) is disabled."
[2021-09-12T15:21:39.970 MDT INFO ][ org.kde.kstars.indi] - ZWO CCD ASI1600MM Pro : "[INFO] World Coordinate System is disabled. "

I have tried turning it back on within the INDI camera control panel for the ASI1600Mm pro and the button turns on, but as soon as I leave that screen, the WCS system gets disabled again. I can't figure out why. This is on the latest Stellarmate build.

Ok, solved. I didn't realize there were TWO places within the system to turn on WCS - the Camera control panel in INDI and also the Stellarsolver control panel in EKOS. Somehow after an update the WCS in Stellarmsolver got turned off. I had only been checking the camera WCS button in INDI.
