Bug Description
If you look at this webpage
http://
There is a table under section "15. Comparison with planetary programs" (In middle of the page)which shows comparisons for the azimuth and h altitudes between diff programs.
I went through both tables and noticed Venus, Uranus and Jupiter for stellarium 0.15 varied largly from results of what other programs were showing which generally matched each other by about a degree or 180deg which was predictable.
I verified that stelarium .15 showed the results the table showed.
I also noticed when comparing Jupiter Az/alt from version.14.2 Stellarium and .15 stellarium the results were different for az/alt which seemed odd given that other planets matched between version .14.2 and .15
So it could be just a az/alt info display error or something more serious.

What is the relationship of planetographic coordinates of planets and orbits of these planets?
