Hi,

I have already seen that for another star but I cannot remember which.

On my system, no problem with this star yet, even with a dutch locale.

I suspect than an installed addon is responsible for that.

NOP.
Same error here with a clean version of Celestia installed (version: Celestia Home download), without any Add-ons.

Oh. I have downloaded version 1.6.0 and there is this error is this version. The problem is fixed in 1.6.1.
The responsible is the nearstars.stc in the data folder.

Here is the new file :

nearstars.zip

To be pedantic, it is NOT in 1.6.1, it is on trunk (which is effectively 1.7). The version of the file in 1.6.1 still has this bug. I've mentioned this on the developers' list (and also want to get some clarification on when 1.6.1 is going to go, Chris L mentioned he was ready to go with the release about a month ago, but things have been silent since then).

Marco, Jo?l,

Thanks for reporting this bug.
I just fixed it in the v1.6.1 branch.
