Seems the very latest updates add Astro functionality to latest cameras including K1s.

Maybe ask on other Pentax forums too? They seem to have higher membership numbers so more likely someone else could have found what you've found.

What version did you update from ?

In what way have the menus changed ? (Astrotracer menu will change)

I have not seen this issue reported, but you may have found a bug. Some more details will help.

I updated too and Satobi is still there. Went from previous version 2.3 to 2.4.

What I did notice was in the RAW data no details to check what your setting was, as I thought I had selected Astro-3 and later switched camera back on the setting was Astro-1, so checked raw data. Would have been nice it was in there, unless I'm mistaken?
Chuffed with result, 20 secs though so not too slow, but pixel peeping appears not bad. Very windy with odd bit of cloud wisps, not the best PP either but here is an amateur attempt;

Where did you find Satobi?
By menus changed I meant the font. (Silly me)

From power up/switch-on, press right hand arrow on the 4-way controller, into drive mode/white balance/custom. I think it was the last one or the penultimate.
