Bug Description

The latest Stellarium app is using the wrong "of date" "ecliptic obliquity". It is using 23° 26' 21" which is for j2000 not "of date". It should be 23° 26' 14". You can double check my findings here: http://www.neoprogrammics.com/obliquity_of_the_ecliptic/

Ouch, of course! A stupid bug with the text. The geometry (graphics) was OK. Thanks for notifying us!
