indi_lx200am5 missing from astroberry distro. The driver assigned by Ekos gets an error, 'Could not get date format from mount', which leads to incorrect date formats, which leads to Ekos being unable to slew the mount.

I have updated via apt update & upgrade. Rπ 4 w/8GB ram

If you don't want to wait for Radek to update Astroberry with the latest INDI, you can download and build INDI yourself. It isn't difficult (but can be intimidating if you've never done it before).

Another option is to purchase a copy of Stellarmate OS, which is updated more often than Astroberry.

I did. and I did run update_indi_core and update_indi_drivers, since the driver for the am5, indi_lx200am5, wasn't present in the download.
So I got the driver I needed, but now the camera drivers crash. I opened a bug by posting here with Stellarmate in the headline.

BTW, the download seems really out-of-date, apt-list --upgradable listed 91 packages needing updates
