| Summary: Library for manipulating FITS data files | |
CFITSIO is a library of C and Fortran subroutines for reading and writing data files in FITS (Flexible Image Transport System) data format. CFITSIO provides simple high-level routines for reading and writing FITS files that insulate the programmer from the internal complexities of the FITS format. CFITSIO also provides many advanced features for manipulating and filtering the information in FITS files. This package contains some FITS image compression and decompression utilities.

* Updated CMake configuration to use GNUInstallDirs module and
to use CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR and CMAKE_INSTALL_INCLUDEDIR;
fixes bug in 4.6.0 that led to an empty 'includedir' in
cfitsio.pc.

* Improved the empty primary data test performed in
fits_open_file.
* Correction to eval_defs.h typedefs to allow for compilation on
old gcc compilers.
* The fitsverify utility tool now distinguishes between
alternate coordinate systems when testing positions of WCSAXES
keywords.
* Updates made for greater C23 compatibility as required for
gcc-15.
* Possible memory vulnerabilities patched.
* Fix to a possible heap buffer overflow in a utility tool.
* Negative size parameter vulnerability patched in utility tool.
- Drop cfitsio-nullptr.patch: incorporated upstream.
- Drop cfitsio-cmake-devel-scripts-destination.patch: fixed
upstream (also fixes boo#1236985).
* Mon Apr 07 2025 Friedrich Haubensak <hsk17@mail.de>
- add cfitsio-nullptr.patch to fix gcc15 compile time error
* Fri Mar 21 2025 Shawn Dunn <sfalken@opensuse.org>
- Add -DCMAKE_POLICY_VERSION_MINIMUM=3.5 to fix FTBFS on cmake4
* Fri Dec 20 2024 Atri Bhattacharya <badshah400@gmail.com>
- Update to version 4.5.0:
* Conversion of CFITSIO configure/build files to better conform
with automake and libtool.
* Bug fix for case of bit column output in string format on
clang compilers with high optimization.
* Added compiler macro support to improve builds on loongarch64
and on Gnu/Hurd kernels.
* Bug fix to fitsverify utility.
- Drop upstreamed patches:
* cfitsio-cmake-allow-user-specified-incdir.patch
* cfitsio-cmake-lowercase-util-names.patch
* cfitsio-cmake-match-autotools-soversion.patch
* Thu Jun 13 2024 Atri Bhattacharya <badshah400@gmail.com>
- Update to version 4.4.0:
* Reorganization of helper utility code; added fitsverify
* CMakeLists.txt: Changed install location of
cfitsio-targets.cmake to conform with the one listed in
cfitsio-config.cmake.in (i.e. including the extra "cfitsio"
subdir of lib/cmake).
* calculator functions that read GTIs do more correct validity
checking of GTI input files
* fits_insert_rows now works if input table starts with both no
rows and no columns
* Can now write internal memory files of size > 2^32 directly to
a gzip-compressed output file.
* Added support for unsigned long long types to fits_update_key.
* Added ability for Windows builds to handle UTF-8 needed for
reading filenames with non-ASCII characters.
* Added 2-byte int test to speed.c utility.
* Made fix to http file handler to expand the allowed URL
length.
- Change License tag to NASA-1.3 in keeping with upstream.
- Switch to cmake+ninja for build.
- Switch BuildRequires to pkgconfig based packages where possible.
- Add a bunch of cmake build related patches to make the output
close to that generated by autotools:
* cfitsio-cmake-devel-scripts-destination.patch: Fix destination of
pkgconfig and cmake scripts from /usr/lib to %{_libdir}.
* cfitsio-cmake-allow-user-specified-incdir.patch: Allow specifying
user-defined include dir into which to install header files.
* cfitsio-cmake-lowercase-util-names.patch: Use lowercase
names for utility binaries when building using cmake (same as
autotools)
* cfitsio-cmake-match-autotools-soversion.patch: Same so
number as used in configure.in.

- Update to version 4.3.1:
* Improve longstring keyword functions
* Wed Jul 26 2023 Atri Bhattacharya <badshah400@gmail.com>
- Update to version 4.3.0:
* Bug fix to fits_make_hist[d] that was introduced in 4.2.0.
* Added overflow checking for case of reading images with 8-byte
float values into 4-byte float arrays.
* fits_write_key_longstr now handles case of writing a long
keyword in combination with a long keyword value string.
* Add conversion of French locale comma-to-period in corner
cases appearing in ffr2e and ffd2e functions.
* Increased the precision when writing version number to
User-Agent strings for http connections. This is needed to
fully conform to 3-field version string format.
* Bug fix to GTIOVERLAP() calculator function, which was being
treated as a boolean value in expressions, and is now
correctly treated as a floating point result.
* Bug fix to ARRAY() calculator function, which caused a memory
overflow error
* Enhancement to the ARRAY function, such that ARRAY(V,d) can
apply new dimensions to V, as long as the total number of
array/vector elements does not change.
* Enhancement of long string keyword read/write functions to
fully conform with FITS standard specifications for multi-line
value and comment strings. Two new functions have been added
to implement this: fits_get_key_com_strlen and
fits_read_string_key_com.
- Make doc package noarch.
