- GNU Astronomy Utilities 0.17 (library 15.0.0):
* New program astscript-fits-view: Given any number of FITS files
this script will either open SAO DS9 (for 2D images or 3D
cubes) or TOPCAT (for tables) to visualize their contents in a
graphic user interface (GUI).
* add a set of installed scripts to enable easy estimation and
subtraction of the extended PSF (astscript-psf-*)
* Coordinate-related columns in all programs now also accept
sexagesimal values, not just degrees
* Columns of FITS tables can now be read in parallel
* multiple new operations and options
* Some operations and options were renamed
* A number of bug fixes
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Oct 11 19:58:13 UTC 2021 - Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>

* MakeCatalog:
+ --areaerror: spatial resolution of image specified by user,
used in estimating the surface brightness error
+ --sberror: error in measuring the surface brightness
(mag/arcsec^2)
* MakeProfiles: New type of profile showing the azimuthal angle
(in degrees, along the elliptical circumference of fixed radius)
of each pixel.
* Match: add support for printing rows that could notbe matched
* Statistics: add --quantofmean: the quantile of the mean of the
input dataset
* --stdintimeout: default value changed from 0.1 seconds to 1.5s
* MakeProfiles: The default output suffix is now '_profiles.fits'
* many bug fixes
- drop gnuastro-cfitsio-version-format-change.patch
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Aug 18 02:39:19 UTC 2021 - Atri Bhattacharya <badshah400@gmail.com>
- Add gnuastro-cfitsio-version-format-change.patch -- accounts for
3 number version string for CFITSIO; patch taken from upstream
commit.

- GNU Astronomy Utilities 0.15 (library 13.0.0):
* New programs: astscript-ds9-region, astscript-radial-profile
* Recognized FITS files even without a FITS suffix
* --wcslinearmatrix: new option in all programs to select the
output WCS linear matrix format
* documentation updates
* New arithmetic operators
* --envseed: new option to get random number generator settings
for the new 'mknoise-sigma' and 'mknoise-poisson' operators
from the environment for reproducibility
* New and updated options to multiple operations
* Extended support for 3d datacubes
* The default end to a "night" is set to 11:00a.m
* Bug fixes

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Jan 30 07:55:39 UTC 2021 - Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- GNU Astronomy Utilities 0.14 (library 12.0.0):
* new program Query ('astquery') to query to external datasets
and retrieve the resulting datasets from the command-line.
The package now recommends curl for this purpose.
* Gnuastro programs will first attempt to write the array in RAM,
only when it fails will they use a memory-mapped file.
Directory changes from .gnuastro_mmap to gnuastro_mmap
* Various documentation updates, extensions and fixes
- remove obsolete texinfo packaging macros
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Sat Sep 12 09:26:37 UTC 2020 - Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- GNU Astronomy Utilities 0.13 (library 11.0.0):
* more relaxed input format for plain-text tables
* New operations to fill blanks with minimum/maximum of nearest
neighbors
* Input can be forced to float by appending '.' or '.0'.
* New colormap 'sls-inverse' for inverse printing
* Many new operations to multiple operations, and bug fixes
- includes changes from 0.12:
* no longer attempt to write memory-mapped files under .gnuastro
to avoid mixing configuration files with processing data
* Many new operations to multiple operations, and bug fixes
-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Nov 26 17:04:05 UTC 2019 - Andreas Stieger <andreas.stieger@gmx.de>
- GNU Astronomy Utilities 0.11 (library 9.0.0):
* documentation updates
* Updates and extensions to multiple operations
- drop upstreamed patch
0001-Reference-wcslib-by-correct-name-in-gnuastro.pc-pkgc.patch
-------------------------------------------------------------------

- Fix wrong automatic pkgconfig(wcs) requires, add
0001-Reference-wcslib-by-correct-name-in-gnuastro.pc-pkgc.patch
- Drop ghostscript BuildRequires, only needed for running tests
(not done), the PDF exporter is built unconditionally. At runtime,
the exporter uses a "gs" executable in PATH, so add a Recommends.
