With this commit, we add `sympy' Python package into the template. This
is a package to do symbolic mathematics.
The motivation is that it is a prerequisite of `sip_tpv' Python package,
which is useful to convert SIP distorsion coefficients into PV
coefficients (in the context of astronomical images). However, the
availability of `sympy' in the template will be useful for anyone
interested in this package.

With this commit, we add `mpmath' Python package into the template. This
package is a prerequisite of `sympy', a package to do symbolic
mathematics.
The motivation of adding this package is because it is a dependency of
`sympy', which is more widely used into the Python science community.

Until now we were using the official tarball of GNU Bash. However, Bash is
distributed using patches, not a public version controlled history. So to
implement newer features of Bash, its necessary to apply those patches and
make the tarball ourselves.
With this commit, we have done just that: we used the 7 patches that have
been released since version 5.0.0 and made a tarball to use for this
template. The instructions on how to make the patched tarball are also
given above the Bash build rule.

Until now, to specify which high-level software you want the project to
contain, it was necessary to go into the `high-level.mk' Makefile that is
complicated and can create bugs.
With this commit, a new `reproduce/software/config/installation/TARGETS.mk'
file has been created that is easily/cleanly in charge of documenting the
final high-level software that must be built for the project.
Also, until now, FFTW was set as a dependency of Numpy while we couldn't
actually get Numpy to use it! It was just there for future reference and to
justify its build rule. But now that many software won't be built and there
is no problem with having rules even though a project might not use them,
it has been removed.

With this commit, we add SCAMP into the project. This program is part of
the Astromatic software and the main purpose is to make the fine
astrometry and the distorsion correction astronomical images.
In principle, SCAMP needs ATLAS library to be able to work (that is what
the documentation says). However, we had some problems with ATLAS
libraries on Mac OS system, and due to that, we set the option
`--enable-openblas' in the configure step. By doing that, we are be able
to install SCAMP with no problems.
One dependency of SCAMP is `cdsclient', it has been also added with this
commit. The `cdsclient' package is a set of C and shell routines which can
be built on Unix stations or PCs running Linux, which once compiled
allow to query some databases located at CDS or on mirrors over the
network.

With this commit, we add SExtractor to be installed into the project. It
is a widely used program to detect object and build catalogues from
astronomical images.
We had some problems when installing it because it could not link with
some ATLAS libraries. But, since we have OpenBLAS installed, we can use
it to override the problem with ATLAS.

SWarp resamples and co-adds together FITS images using any arbitrary
astrometric projection defined in the WCS standard. It is a very useful
program for astronomy and that is why we added it to the pipeline.
With this commit, we also cite the paper for Astrometry-net that until
now was missing.

|
With this commit, we include Astrometry-net software and one remaining
dependency of it (Swig). In principle it should work as far as we tested
all of this software in GNU/Linux, but we need to test also in Mac OS.
As a result, this commit is just for setting all the rules and
dependencies, but more tests are necessaries to ensure it works
properly, specially in Mac OS systems.

|
With this commit, the installation of `netpbm' has been included. This
software has a crazy dialogue installation that we override by giving to
it the answers (they differs on GNU/Linux and Mac OS systems). `libxml2'
also has been built (a remaining dependency of `netpbm').
In this commit, `libpng' version has been downgraded because it is
required by `netpbm'.
The motivation of installing `netpbm' is that it is a dependency of
Astrometry-net software.

In this commit we add Cairo library. The motivation of including this
library is because it is a dependency of Astrometry-net (which is a
common software used in astronomy projects). In principle it will not
be build by default by de pipeline, but we will keep the rule just in
case it is needed.
Pixman is another library which is a prerequisite of Cairo, it is also
built with this commit.

Until now, the software building and analysis steps of the pipeline were
intertwined. However, these steps (of how to build a software, and how to
use it) are logically completely independent.
Therefore with this commit, the pipeline now has a new architecture
(particularly in the `reproduce' directory) to emphasize this distinction:
The `reproduce' directory now has the two `software' and `analysis'
subdirectories and the respective parts of the previous architecture have
been broken up between these two based on their function. There is also no
more `src' directory. The `config' directory for software and analysis is
now mixed with the language-specific directories.
Also, some of the software versions were also updated after some checks
with their webpages.
This new architecture will allow much more focused work on each part of the
pipeline (to install the software and to run them for an analysis).
