Research direction

Start by reproducing the issue on Ubuntu 26.04.1-LTS with gpredict v2.4-2, then inspect the ground track display path and compare its behavior with the previous Ubuntu version. Confirm whether ground tracks are invisible for all selected satellites while the display option is enabled; done means identifying and fixing the cause so ground tracks appear again.

Description

After upgrading to Ubuntu 26.04.1-LTS, ground tracks are no longer visible for any selected satellite (display ground track is selected). I am running gpredict v2.4-2. Ground tracks displayed fine on the previous Ubuntu version.
