MilkyWay Imagestacking Linux (discuss.tchncs.de)

Hi there. I know that Darktable can't do Imagestacking for photos of the MilkyWay. I have searched now for some time, but could find only Siril as Linux Alternative. But in most descriptions, it is stated, that Siril is not the best, when I have parts of the landscape on the horizon and i should only use it, when i have photos from the sky only.

Can someone recommend me a Linux native Imagestacking tool, which I can use also on photos with landscapes on the horizon?

Did you explore Hugin? I thought it was the standard tool for this in Linux

If i remember correctly, Hugin is for stitching Panorama's, but not for stacking Astrophotos. But many thx the hint.

I've never used it for photo stacking, but digiKam has a GUI guided tool for panoromas and photo stacking using a Hugin backend. It works pretty well for panos
