Package: kstars-data-extra-tycho2
Version: 1.1r1-9
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

The current testing version of kstars, version 4:16.08.3-1, expects
deepstars.dat to reside in /usr/share/kstars along with its other data files.
However, the current testing version of kstars-data-extra-tycho2 installs it
in /usr/share/kde4/apps/kstars where it is ignored by kstars.

A short snippet from the kstars startup messages:

  Opened the User DB. Ready.
  Processing  "unnamedstars.dat" , HTMesh Level 3
    Sky Mesh Size:  512
  Loaded DSO catalog file:  "unnamedstars.dat"
  "Star HD61421 not found."
  "Star HD10700 not found."

After I created a symlink from /usr/share/kde4/apps/kstars/deepstars.dat to
/usr/share/kstars/deepstars.dat:

  Opened the User DB. Ready.
  Processing  "unnamedstars.dat" , HTMesh Level 3

  Loaded DSO catalog file:  "unnamedstars.dat"
  Processing  "deepstars.dat" , HTMesh Level 3

  "Star HD61421 not found."
  "Star HD10700 not found."
