- aarch64-support.patch: Add support for aarch64

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed Apr  3 18:35:45 UTC 2013 - asterios.dramis@gmail.com

- Update to version 3.340:
  * modified configure and configure.in to support cross-compiled cfitsio
    as a static library for Windows on a Linux platform using MXE
    (http://mxe.cc) - a build environment for mingw32. (contributed by
    Niels Kristian Bech Jensen)
  * added conditional compilation statementsfor the mingw32 environment in
    drvrfile.c because mingw32 does not include the ftello and fseeko 
    functions. (contributed by Niels Kristian Bech Jensen)
  * fixed a potential bug in ffcpcl (routine to copy a column from one table
    to another table) when dealing with the rare case of a '0X' column (zero
    length bit column).
  * fixed an issue in the routines that update or modify string-valued
    keyword values, as a result of the change to ffc2s in the previous
    release.  These routines would exit with a 204 error status if the
    current value of the keyword to be updated or modified is null.
  * fixed typo in the previous modification that was intended to ignore
    numerical overflows in Hcompress when decompressing an image.
  * moved the 'startcol' static variable out of the ffgcnn routine and
    instead added it as a member of the 'FITSfile' structure that is defined
    in fitsio.h.  This removes a possible race condition in ffgcnn in
    multi-threaded environments.
  From version 3.330:
  * modified the imcomp_decompress_tile routine to ignore any numerical
    overflows that might occur when using Hcompress to decompress the
    image.  If Hcompress is used in its 'lossy' mode, the uncompressed
    image pixel values may slightly exceed the range of an integer*2
    variable. This is generally of no consequence, so we can safely ignore
    any overflows in this case and just clip the values to the legal range.
  * the default tiling pattern when writing a tile-compressed image
    has been changed.  The old behaviour was to compress the whole image
    as one single large tile.  This is often not optimal when dealing
    with large images, so the new default behavior is to treat each
    row of the image as one tile.  This is the same default behavior
    as in the standalone fpack program.  The default tile size can
    be overridden by calling fits_set_tile_dim.
  * fixed bug bug that resulted in a corrupted output FITS image when
    attempting to write a float or double array of values to a
    tile-compressed integer data type image.  CFITSIO does not support
    implicit data type conversion in this case and now correctly
    returns an appropriate error status.
  * modified ricecomp.c to define the nonzero_count lookup table as an
    external variable, rather then dynamically allocating it within the
    3 routines that use it.  This simplifies the code and eliminates the
    need for special thread locking and unlocking statements. (Thanks to
    Lars Kr. Lundin for this suggestion).
  * modifed how the uncompressed size of a gzipped file is computed in the
    mem_compress_open routine in drvrmem.c.  Since gzip only uses 4 bytes
    in the compressed file header to store the original file size, one may
    need to apply a modulo 2^32 byte correction in some cases.  The logic
    here was modified to allow for corner cases (e.g., very small files, and
    when running on 32-bit platforms that do not support files larger than
    2^31 bytes in size).
  * added new public routine to construct a 80 keyword record from the 3 input
    component strings, i.e, the keyword name string, the value string, and
    the comment string: fits_make_key/ffmkky.  (This was already an undocumented
    internal routine in previous versions of CFITSIO).
  * modified ffc2s so that if the input keyword value string is a null string,
    then it will return a VALUE_UNDEFINED (204) status value.  This makes it
    consistent with the behavior when attempting to read a null keyword
    (which has no value) as a logical or as a number (which also returns
    the 204 error).  This should only affect cases where the header keyword
    does not have an equal sign followed by a space character in columns 9
    and 10 of the header record.
  * Changed the "char *" parameter declarations to "const char *" in many
    of the routines (mainly the routines that modify or update keywords) to
    avoid compiler warnings or errors from C++ programs that tend to be more
    rigorous about using "const char *" when appropriate.
  * added support for caching uncompressed image tiles, so that the tile does
    not need to be uncompressed again if the application program wants
    to read more data from the same tile. This required changes to the
    main FITS file structure that is defined in fitsio.h, as well as
    changes to imcompress.c.
  * enhanced the previous modification to drvrfile.c to handle additional user
    cases when running in the HEASARC's Hera environment.
  From version 3.320:
  * fixed flaw in the way logical columns (TFORM = 'L') in binary tables
    were read which caused an illegal value of 1 in the column to be
    interpreted as a 'T' (TRUE) value.
  * extended the column filtering syntax in the CFITSIO file name parser to
    enable users and scripts to append new COMMENT or HISTORY keyword into the
    header of the filtered file (provided by Craig Markwardt).  For example,
    fcopy "infile.fits[col #HISTORY='Processed on 2012-10-05']" outfile.fits
    will append this header keyword: "HISTORY Processed on 2012-10-05"
  * small change to the code that opens and reads an ASCII region file to
    return an error if the file is empty.
  * fixed obscure sign propagation error when attempting to read the
    uncompressed size of a gzipped FITS file.  This resulted in a memory
    allocation error if the gzipped file had an uncompressed file
    size between 2^31 and 2^32 bytes.  Fix supplied by Gudlaugur Johannesson
    (Stanford).
- Rebased cfitsio.patch to apply cleanly.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue Jul 31 16:10:47 UTC 2012 - asterios.dramis@gmail.com

- Update to version 3.310:
  * Enhanced the CFITSIO column filtering syntax to allow the comma, in
    addition to the semi-colon, to be used to separate clauses, for example:
    [col X,Y;Z = max(X,Y)].  This was done because users are not allowed to
    enter the semi-colon character in the on-line Hera data processing
    system due to computer security concerns.
  * Enhanced the CFITSIO extended filename syntax to allow specifying image
    compression parameters (e.g. '[compress Rice]') when opening an existing
    FITS file with write access.  The specified compression parameters will
    be used by default if more images are appended to the existing file.
  * Modified drvrfile.c to do additional file secrity checks when CFITSIO
    is running within the HEASARC's Hera software system.  In this case
    CFITSIO will not allow FITS files to be created outside of the user's
    individual Hera data directory area.
  * Fixed an issue in fpack and funpack on Windows machines, caused by
    the fact that the 'rename' function behaves differently on Windows
    in that it does not clobber an existing file, as it does on Unix
    platforms.
  * Fixed bug in the way byte-swapping was being performed when writing
    integer*8 null values to an image or binary table column.
  * Added the missing macro definition for fffree to fitsio.h.
  * Modified the low level table read and write functions in getcol*.c and
    putcol*.c to remove the 32-bit limitation on the number of elements.
    These routines now support reading and writing more than 2**31 elements
    at one time. Thanks to Keh-Cheng Chu (Stanford U.) for the patch.
  * Modified Makefile.in so that the shared libcfitsio.so is linked against
    pthreads and libm.
- Removed the fix to link the library to libpthread and libm from cfitsio.patch
  (fixed upstream).
- Rebased cfitsio-zlib.patch to apply cleanly. Removed the linking of the
  programs (fpack and funpack) to libz from the patch (not needed).
- Remove some more bundled zlib files from the package.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Wed May  9 19:30:17 UTC 2012 - asterios.dramis@gmail.com

- Renamed package from libcfitsio0 to cfitsio.
- Renamed subpackage libcfitsio-doc to libcfitsio-devel-doc (added obsoletes
  entry for libcfitsio-doc of previous openSUSE versions).
- Suggest the libcfitsio-devel-doc package in libcfitsio-devel.
- Removed the requirement for libcfitsio0 from libcfitsio-(devel)-doc (not
  needed).

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Tue May  8 18:33:41 UTC 2012 - asterios.dramis@gmail.com

- Update to version 3.300:
  Enhancements
  * Added new routine called fits_is_reentrant which returns 1 or 0 depending
    on whether or not CFITSIO was compiled with the -D_REENTRANT directive.
    This can be used to determine if it is safe to use CFITSIO in
    multi-threaded programs.
  * Implimented much faster byte-swapping algorithms in swapproc.c based on
    code provided by Julian Taylor at ESO, Garching.  These routines
    significantly improve the FITS image read and write speed (by more than a
    factor of 2 in some cases) on little-endian machines (e.g., Linux and
    Microsoft Windows running on x86 PCs) where byte-swapping is required.
    This has no effect on big-endian machines (e.g., Macs).  Even faster
    performance can be achieved in some cases by invoking the new
    "--enable-sse2" or "--enable-ssse3" configure options when building CFITSIO
    on machines that have CPUs and compilers that support the SSE2 and SSSE3
    machine instructions.
  * added additional support for implicit data type conversion in cases where
    the floating point image has been losslessly compressed with gzip.  The
    pixels in these compressed images can now be read back as arrays of short,
    int, and long integers as well as single and double precision
    floating-point.
  * modified fitsio2.h and f77_wrap.h to recognize IBM System z mainframes by
    testing if __s390x__ or __s390__ is defined.
  * small change to ffgcrd in getkey.c so that it supports reading a blank
    keyword (e.g., a keyword whose name simply contains 8 space chracters).
  Bug Fixes
  * fixed a bug in imcomp_decompress_tile that caused the tile-compressed image
    to be uncompressed incorrectly (even though the tile-compressed image
    itself was written correctly) under the following specific conditions:
     - the original FITS image has a "float" datatype (R*4)
     - one or more of the image tiles cannot be compressed using the standard
       quantization method  and instead are losslessly compressed with gzip
     - the pixels in these tiles are not all equal to zero (this bug does
       affect tiles where all the pixels are equal to zero)
     - the program that is reading the compressed image uses CFITSIO's
       "implicit datatype conversion" feature to read the "float" image
       back into an array of "double" pixel values.
     If all these conditions are met, then the returned pixel values in the
     affected image tiles will be garbage, with values often ranging
     up to 10**34.  Note that this bug does not affect the fpack/funpack
     programs, because funpack does not use CFITSIO's implicit datatype
     conversion feature when uncompressing the image.
- Replaced cfitsio-makefile.patch with cfitsio.patch (taken from Fedora). It's
  the same patch with the addition of linking libcfitsio with libpthread and
  libm (fixes possible errors with packages requiring libcfitsio0 and compiled
  with the "--as-needed" flag).
- Added a patch (cfitsio-zlib.patch) to use system zlib (based on patches from
  Fedora and Debian). Added zlib-devel in build depencdencies.
- Added a patch (implicit-pointer-decl.patch) to fix "implicit-pointer-decl"
  rpm post build check warning.
- Moved "-lpthread" and added "-lz" in Libs.private: of cfitsio pkg-config
  file.
- Removed "-fno-strict-aliasing" from CFLAGS.
- Don't install static libraries.

- Update to version 3.290:
  Enhancements
  * modified Makefile.in to allow configure to override the lib and include
    destination directories.
  * added (or restored actually) support for tile compression of 1-byte integer
    images in imcomp_compress_tile.  Support for that data type was overlooked
    during recent updates to this routine.
  * modified the fits_get_token command-line parsing routine to perform more
    rigorous checks to determine if the token can be interpreted as a number
    or not.
  * made small modification to fpack.c to not allow the -i2f option (convert
    image from integer to floating point) with the "-g -q 0" option (do lossless
    gzip compression).  It is more efficient to simply use the -g option alone.
  * made modifications to fitsio.h and drvrfile.c to support reading and
    writing large FITS files (> 2.1 GB) when building CFITSIO using
    Microsoft Visual C++ on Windows platforms.
  * added new WCS routine (ffgicsa) which returns the WCS keyword values
    for a particular WCS version ('A' - 'Z').
  Bug Fixes
  * fixed a problem with multi-threaded apps that open/close FITS files
    simultaneously by putting mutex locks around the call to
    fits_already_open and in fits_clear_Fptr.
  * fixed a bug when using the 'regfilter' function to select a subset of the
    rows in a FITS table that have coordinates that lie within a specified
    spatial region on the sky.  This bug only affects the rarely used panda
    (and epanda and bpanda) region shapes in which the region is defined by
    the intersection of an annulus  and a pie-shaped wedge.  The previous code
    (starting with version 3.181 of CFITSIO where support for the panda region
    was first introduced) only worked correctly if the 2 angles that define
    the wedge have values between -180 and +180.  If not, then fewer rows than
    expected may have been selected from the table.
  * fixed the extended filename parser so that when creating a histogram by
    binning 2 table columns, if a keyword or column name is given as the
    weighting factor,  then the output histrogram image will have a floating
    point datatype, not the default integer datatype as is the case when no
    weigth is specified (e.g. with a filename like
    "myfile.fits[bin x,y; weight_column]"
  * added fix to the code in imcompress.c to work around a problem with
    dereferencing the value of a pointer, in cases where the address of
    that pointer has not been defined (e.g., the nulval variable).
  * modified the byte shuffling algorithm in fits_shuffle_8bytes to work
    around a strange bug in the proprietary SunStudioExpress C compiler
    under OpenSolaris.
  * removed spurious messages on the CFITSIO error stack when opening a
    FITS file with FTP (in drvrnet.c);
- Removed the Makefile.in changes from cfitsio-makefile.patch (fixed upstream).
- Spec file updates:
  * Changed License entry to SPDX style.
  * Enable multithreading support.

-------------------------------------------------------------------
Mon Oct 15 10:21:31 CEST 2007 - lmichnovic@suse.cz

- update to version 3.06
  * modified the imcopy.c utility program (to tile-compress images)
    so that it writes the default EXTNAME = 'COMPRESSED_IMAGE'
    keyword in the compressed images, to preserve the behavior of
    earlier versions of imcopy.
  * modified the angsep function in the FITS calculator (in eval.y)
    to use haversines, instead of the 'law of cosines', to provide
    more precision at small angles (< 0.1 arcsec).
  * extensive changes to imcompress.c to fully support implicit
    data type conversion when reading and writing arrays of data
    to FITS images, where the data type of the array is not the 
    same as the data type of the FITS image.  This includes 
    support for null pixels, and data scaling via the BSCALE and
    BZERO keywords.
  * rewrote the fits_read_tbl_coord routine in wcssub.c, that gets
    the standard set of WCS keywords appropriate to a pair of 
    columns in a table, to better support the full set of 
    officially approved WCS keywords.  
  * made significant changes to histo.c, which creates an image by 
    binning columns of a table, to better translate the WCS
    keywords in the table header into the WCS keywords that are 
    appropriate for an image HDU.
  * modified imcompress.c so that when pixels are written to a 
    tile-compressed image, the appropriate BSCALE and BZERO values
    of that image are applied.  This fixes a bug in which writing
    to an unsigned integer datatype image (with BZERO = 32768) was 
    not done correctly.
