Hi
I think the OP is asking what the steps are to install astronomy.net and then use it in Ekos.
AFAICT the answer is:
sudo apt-get install astrometry.net
then choose the index files you need following the steps

You then access astronomy.net solver using the Ekos align module.
Is that it? Maybe kubuntu is different from ubuntu?
HTH
The only thing different between Kubuntu and Ubuntu is that Kubuntu uses KDE as default desktop and Ubuntu uses Gnome (version 3, Ubuntu MATE uses Gnome 2). So Synaptic amd Discover work as well, Alacant’s answer matches Jasem’s answer for using the command line.
But yes, you’ll need the index files as well. Thanks for pointing that out Alacant.
Hi
The OP has both astronomy.net and the index files installed or at least knows that he needs these. His question was how does he use these with Ekos.
I'm almost certain that this is by using the align module.
Or I've completely misunderstood the question. More than likely!
