Changelog for cfitsio-devel-3.490-bp154.1.83.x86_64.rpm :

* Sun Aug 16 2020 Dirk Mueller - update to 3.490: - Fix to imcompress.c. It now turns off quantization if ZSCALE and ZZERO columns are missing. Treatment will be the same as if ZQUANTIZ were set to \'NONE\', even if ZQUANTIZ is present and set to something else. - Added mutex to fits_execute_template() function so that the creation of files using ASCII templates will be thread safe. - In fpack when using -table flag, replaced warning message with a more detailed description mentioning FITS format update. - Added flag to CMake builds to disable curl dependency. Also only add CURL_LIBRARIES to CMake link target if curl is found. - Minor adjustment to download progress output.
* Mon Jul 06 2020 Benjamin Greiner - Update to version 3.480:
* Now can handle parentheses in path names rather than automatically interpreting them as output file specifiers.
* Fixed bug in imcompress.c that wasn\'t properly handling conversion between float and double types when reading from a gzip compressed float or double image.
* Fixed bug that was preventing use of bracket and parentheses symbols in pathnames when opening multiple READWRITE files, even when requesting no-extended-syntax usage.
*This fix necessitates a library interface version number change.
* Fixed bug in ffmnhd / fits_movnam_hdu to properly handle wildcard syntax.
* Fixed bug in fits_open_extlist to handle filename[EXT] syntax properly. The hdutype parameter may now be null. More documentaion for this function is in cfitsio.tex.
* Added new function fits_copy_hdutab to create a new table with the same structure as an existing table.
* fits_copy_col / ffcpcl handles long long integer data types more natively to prevent precision loss.
* histo.c routines now recognize integer columns that have been scaled by TSCALn keywords and may be closer to floating point type.
* Added backward compatibility for very old Rice compressed files which were not using the ZVAL2 keyword in the way that later became standard.
* Change made to cfitsio.pc.in to prevent forcing downstream libraries to link against cfitsio\'s dependencies when using pkgconfig.
* Sat Oct 05 2019 Asterios Dramis - Update to version 3.470:
* Added set of drivers for performing ftps file transfers.
* Tile sizes for compression may now be specified for any pair of axes, where previously 2D tiles where limited to just X and y.
* Fix to ffgsky and ffgkls functions for case of keyword with long string values where the final CONTINUE statement ended with \'&\'. If the final CONTINUE also contained a comment, it was being repeated twice when passed back through the \'comm\' argument.
* Fix made to ffedit_columns() for case of multiple col filters containing wildcards. Only the first filter was being searched.
* fits_copy_rows (ffcprw) can now handle \'P\'-type variable-length columns.
* Fix made to an obscure case in fits_modify_vector_len, where a wrongly issued EOF error may occur.
* Added internal fffvcl() function. From version 3.460 (Ftools release):
* Improved the algorithm for ensuring no tile dimensions are smaller than 4 pixels for HCOMPRESS compression.
* Added new functions intended to assist in diagnosing (primarily https) download issues: fits_show_download_progress, fits_get_timeout, fits_set_timeout.
* Added the \'-O \' option to fpack, which previously existed only for funpack. Also added fpack/funpack auto-removal of .bz2 suffix equivalent to what existed for .gz.
* For the fpack \'-table\' cases, warning message is now sent to stderr instead of stdout. This is to allow users to pipe the results from stdout in valid FITS format. (The warning message is otherwise placed at the start of the FITS file and therefore corrupts it.)
* Fix made to the \'-P\' file prefix option in funpack.
* Added wildcard deletion syntax for columns, i.e. -COLNAM
* will delete the first matching column as always; -COLNAM
*+ will delete all matching columns (or none); exact symmetry with the keyword deletion syntax.- Rebased cfitsio-zlib.patch to apply cleanly.
* Sat Dec 01 2018 Asterios Dramis - Update to version 3.450:
* New support for reading and writing unsigned long long datatypes. This includes \'implicit datatype conversion\' between the unsigned long long datatype and all the other datatypes.
* Increased the hardcoded NMAXFILES setting for maximum number of open files from 1000 to 10000.
* Bug fix to fits_calc_binning wrapper function, which wasn\'t filling in the returned float variables.
* Fixed a parsing bug for image subsection and column binning range specifiers that was introduced in v3.44.
* Mon Apr 16 2018 asterios.dramisAATTgmail.com- Update to version 3.440:
* This release primarily patches security vulnerabilities. We strongly encourage this upgrade, particularly for those running CFITSIO in web accessible applications.
* Enhancement to \'template\' and \'colfilter\' functionality. It is now possible to delete multiple keywords using wildcard syntax. See \"Column and Keyword Filtering Specification\" section of manual for details.
* histo.c uses double precision internally for all floating point binning; new double-precision subroutines fits_calc_binningd(), fits_rebin_wcsd(), and fits_make_histd(); existing single-precision histogram functions still work but convert values to double-precision internally.
* new subroutine fits_copy_cols() / ffccls() to copy multiple columns
* Fix in imcompress.c for HCOMPRESS and PLIO compression of unsigned short integers.
* Fix to fits_insert_card(ffikey). It had wrongly been capitalizing letters that appeared before an \'=\' sign on a CONTINUE line.- Rebased cfitsio-zlib.patch to apply cleanly.
* Wed Apr 11 2018 asterios.dramisAATTgmail.com- Update to version 3.430:
* Fixed security vulnerabilities (bsc#1088590, CVE-2018-1000166).
* Calls to https driver functions in cfileio.c need to be macro- protected by the HAVE_NET_SERVICES variable (as are the http and ftp driver function calls). Otherwise CMake builds on native Windows will fail since drvrnet.o is left empty.
* Bug fix to ffmvec function. Should be resetting a local colptr variable after making a call to ffiblk (which can reallocate Ftpr->tableptr).
* Ignore any attempted request to not quantize an image before compressing it if the image has integer datatype pixels.
* Improved error message construction throughout CFITSIO.- Package licence file as license, not doc (boo#1082318).
* Thu Feb 08 2018 asterios.dramisAATTgmail.com- Update to version 3.420:
* added https support to the collection of drivers handled in cfileio.c and drvrnet.c. This also handles the case where http transfers are rerouted to https. Note that this enhancement introduces a dependency on the libcurl development package. If this package is absent, CFITSIO will still build but will not have https capability.
* made fix to imcomp_init_table function in imcompress.c. It now writes ZSIMPLE keyword only to a compressed image that will be placed in the primary header.
* fix made to fits_get_col_display_width for case of a vector column of strings.
* in ftp_open_network and in ftp_file_exist, added code to repeatedly attempt to make a ftp connection if the ftp server does not respond to the first request. (some ftp servers don\'t appear to be 100% reliable).
* in drvrnet.c added many calls to \'fclose\' to close unneeded files, to avoid exceeding the maximum allowed number of files that can be open at once.
* made substantial changes to the ftp_checkfile and http_checkfile routines to streamline the process of checking for the existence of a .gz or .Z compressed version of the file before opening the uncompressed file (when using http or ftp to open the file).
* modified the code in ftp_open_network to send \"\\r\
\" as end-of-line characters instead of just \"\
\". Some ftp servers (in particular, at heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov) now require both characters, otherwise the network connection simply hangs.
* modified the http_open_network routine to handle HTTP 301 or 302 redirects to a FTP url. This is needed to support the new configuration on the heasarc HTTP server which sometimes redirects http URLS to a ftp URL.- Added new build requirement libcurl-devel.
* Tue Feb 28 2017 asterios.dramisAATTgmail.com- Update to version 3.410:
* The change made in version 3.40 to include strings.h caused problems on Windows (and other) platforms, so this change was backed out. The reason for including it was to define the strcasecmp and strcasencmp functions, so as an alternative, new equivalent functions called fits_strcasecmp and fits_strncasecmp have been added to CFITSIO.as a substitute. All the previous calls to the str[n]casecmp functions have been changed to now call fits_str[n]casecmp. In addition, the previously defined ngp_strcasecmp function (in grparser.c) has been removed and the calls to it have been changed to fits_strcasecmp.
* The speed.c utility program was changed to correctly call the gettimeofday function with a NULL second arguement. From version 3.400:
* fixed a bug when writing long string keywords with the CONTINUE convention which caused the CONTINUE\'d strings to only be 16 characters long, instead of using up all the available space in the 80-character header record.
* fixed a missing \'defined\' keyword in fitsio.h.
* replaced all calls to strtok (which is not threadsafe) with a new ffstrtok function which internally calls the threadsafe strtok_r function. One byproduct of this change is that must also be included in several of the C source code files.
* modified the ffphbn function in putkey.c to support TFORM specifiers that use lowercase \'p\' (instead of uppercase) when referring to a variable-length array column.
* modified the lexical parser in eval.y and eval_y.c to support bit array columns (with TFORMn = \'X\') with greater than 256 elements. Fix to bitcmp function: The internal \'stream\' array is now allocated dynamically rather than statically fixed at size 256. This was failing when users attempted a row filtering of a bitcol that was wider than 256X. In bitlgte, bitand, and bitor functions, replaced static stream[256] array allocation with dynamic allocation.
* modified the ffiter function in putcol.c to fix a problem which could cause the iterator function to incorrectly deal with null values. This only affected TLONG type columns in cases where sizeof(long) = 8, as well as for TLONGLONG type columns.
* Fix made to uncompress2mem function in zcomprss.c for case where output uncompressed file expands to over the 2^32 (4Gb) limit. It now checks for this case at the start, and implements a 4Gb paging system through the output buffer. The problem was specifically caused by the d_stream.avail_out member being of 4-byte type uInt, and thus unable to handle any memory position values above 4Gb.
* fixed a bug in fpackutil.c when using the -i2f (integer to float) option in fpack to compress an integer image that is scaled with non-default values for BSCALE and BZERO. This required an additional call to ffrhdu to reset the internal structures that describe the input FITS file.
* modified fits_uncompress_table in imcompress.c to silently ignore the ZTILELEN keyword value if it larger than the number of rows in the table
* Tweak strcasecmp/strncasecmp ifdefs to exclude 64-bit MINGW environment, as it does not lack those functions. (eval_l.c, fitsio2.h)
* CMakeLists.txt: Set M_LIB to \"\" for MINGW build environment (in addition to MSVC).
* Makefile.in: Add
*.dSYM (non-XCode gcc leftovers on Macs) to clean list. Install libs by name rather than using a wildcard.
* configure: Fix rpath token usage for XCode vs. non-XCode gcc on Macs.- Rebased cfitsio-zlib.patch to apply cleanly.
* Sun Jun 26 2016 asterios.dramisAATTgmail.com- Update to version 3.390:
* Lots of changes - see changes.txt for details.- Rebased cfitsio-zlib.patch to apply cleanly.
* Thu Dec 25 2014 p.drouandAATTgmail.com- Update to version 3.370 + Added configure options to support reading bzip2 compressed FITS files. This depends on having the bzlib library installed on the local machine. + Replaced the random Gaussian and Poissonian distribution functions with new code written by Craig Markwardt derived from public domain C++ functions + Patched fitsio2.h to support CFITSIO on AArch64 (64-bit ARM) architecture (both big and little endian). + Fixed bug in fpackutil.c that caused fpack to exit prematurely if the FZALGOR directive keyword was present in the HDU header.- Remove obsolete patches; fixed on upstream release + aarch64-support.patch + ppc64le-support.patch
