* documentation updates
* A number of added options, operators and functions to multiple commands, along with bug fixes
* Tue Oct 25 2022 Andreas Stieger - GNU Astronomy Utilities 0.19 (library 17.0.0)

* add a set of installed scripts to enable easy estimation and subtraction of the extended PSF (astscript-psf-
*)

* Wed Aug 18 2021 Atri Bhattacharya - Add gnuastro-cfitsio-version-format-change.patch -- accounts for 3 number version string for CFITSIO; patch taken from upstream commit.
* Wed Jun 02 2021 Andreas Stieger - 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

* 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

* 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

* documentation updates
* Updates and extensions to multiple operations- drop upstreamed patch 0001-Reference-wcslib-by-correct-name-in-gnuastro.pc-pkgc.patch
