Thanks a lot for this!
However, this is VERY weird since in theory stellarium 0.13 uses Qt5!
Moreover, as I just checked, on some architectures libqt4-opengl is
installed as a dependency, but not on amd64:
https://packages.debian.org/sid/stellarium

Why would a Qt5 application require Qt4 libraries in the case
of your bug escapes me... Moreover, I've just removed libqt4-opengl
from my system and stellarium works hapilly anyway, so it is
probably still linked to your particular configuration. Is your previous
bug still reproducible, even if you remove libqt4-opengl now? Maybe
you did something also as well?
