Starting with Astrometry, Default configuration loaded last. It's not what I
Saved.

I appear to be getting default configurations overwriting my saved preferences
in the Indi Control Panel as shown by the attached text.
This problem has been better defined for me by the help of Forum members,
especially Frederick Ruegsegger on #90756 "For my part, this has been fiddly
from time to time - particularly during configuration of a new or revised
profile."
Fred has defined this well, and since I commenced doing Bug reporting on
Nightly Builds I have have reloaded the Linux PC with 3 new OS and now run an
exclusive Kubuntu SSD drive only - each time I blame my system as my KStars Ver
3.5.7 has none of the Fatal issues I am now finding with a new build.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. An Mature KStars is annoying sometimes, but not with fatal crashes.
2. A new build is difficult to configure each night for imaging, hours are lost
in the setup.
3. The logs show the configuration information, but the text entered below the
Indi Control Panels indicate that My Saved Configurations may be being
overwritten by system default configurations.
OBSERVED RESULT
New Builds of any KStars on a new OS are not stable. They stabilize over time.
EXPECTED RESULT
Without a 'Portable and Editable Configuration File Backup' confirming my
preferances, then I'm just getting a factory default setting in my preferances
