SUMMARY: just house-cleaning, no need to do anything major in your
branch. Just update the copyright years in files that you have added.
Until now, the latest copyright years of the whole Maneage source code was
2022! As of this commit, we have already moved to 2023 for 5 months!
Furthermore, there were a few other minor issues that needed correction:
- The URL to download input datasets wasn't quoted in 'initialize.mk' or
the download script! As a result, when the input URL had characters that
are meaningful to the shell (like '&'), the download command would not
work.
- The only program that had 'make check' in the 'basic.mk' programs was
MPFR. At that stage, we still haven't built our own compiler at this
stage, this is not accurate.
- The 'pyerfa' and 'extension-helpers' packages in Python need
'setuptools_scm' on some systems. But until now, it was not in the list
of their prerequisites.
With this commit, all the issues above have been corrected.

This commit primarily affects the configuration step of Maneage'd projects,
and in particular, updated versions of the many of the software (see
P.S.). So it shouldn't affect your high-level analysis other than the
version bumps of the software you use (and the software's possibly
improve/changed behavior).
The following software (and thus their dependencies) couldn't be updated as
described below:
- Cryptography: isn't building because it depends on a new
setuptools-rust package that has problems
(https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/index.php?61731), so it has been
commented in 'versions.conf'.
- SecretStorage: because it depends on Cryptography.
- Keyring: because it depends on SecretStorage.
- Astroquery: because it depends on Keyring.
This is a "squashed" commit after rebasing a development branch of 60
commits corresponding to a roughly two-month time interval. The following
people contributed to this branch.
- Boudewijn Roukema added all the R software infrastructure and the R
packages, as well as greatly helping in fixing many bugs during the
update.
- Raul Infante-Sainz helped in testing and debugging the build.
- Pedram Ashofteh Ardakani found and fixed a bug.
- Zahra Sharbaf helped in testing and found several bugs.
Below a description of the most noteworthy points is given.
- Software tarballs: all updated software now have a unified format
tarball (ustar; if not possible, pax) and unified compression (Lzip) in
Maneage's software repository in Zenodo
(https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.3883409). For more on this See
https://savannah.nongnu.org/task/?15699 . This won't affect any extra
software you would like to add; you can use any format recognized by
GNU Tar, and all common compression algorithms. This new requirement is
only for software that get merged to the core Maneage branch.
- Metastore (and thus libbsd and libmd) moved to highlevel: Metastore
(and the packages it depends on) is a high-level product that is only
relevant during the project development (like Emacs!): when the user
wants the file meta data (like dates) to be unchanged after checking
out branches. So it should be considered a high-level software, not
basic. Metastore also usually causes many more headaches and error
messages, so personally, I have stopped using it! Instead I simply
merge my branches in a separate clone, then pull the merge commit: in
this way, the files of my project aren't re-written during the checkout
phase and therefore their dates are untouched (which can conflict with
Make's dates on configuration files).
- The un-official cloned version of Flex (2.6.4-91 until this commit) was
causing problems in the building of Netpbm, so with this commit, it has
been moved back to version 2.6.4.
- Netpbm's official page had version 10.73.38 as the latest stable
tarball that was just released in late 2021. But I couldn't find our
previously-used version 10.86.99 anywhere (to see when it was released
and why we used it! Its at last more than one year old!). So the
official stable version is being used now.
- Improved instructions in 'README.md' for building software environment
in a Docker container (while having project source and output data
products on the local system; including the usage of the host's
'/dev/shm' to speed up temporary operations).
- Until now, the convention in Maneage was to put eight SPACE characters
before the comment lines within recipes. This was done because by
default GNU Emacs (also many other editors) show a TAB as eight
characters. However, in other text editors, online browsers, or even
the Git diff, a TAB can correspond to a different number of
characters. In such cases, the Maneage recipes wouldn't look too
interesting (the comments and the recipe commands would show a
different indentation!).
With this commit, all the comment lines in the Makefiles within the
core Maneage branch have a hash ('#') as their first character and a
TAB as the second. This allows the comment lines in recipes to have the
same indentation as code; making the code much more easier to read in a
general scenario including a 'git diff' (editor agnostic!).
P.S. List of updated software with their old and new versions
- Software with no version update are not mentioned.

Having entered 2021, it was necessary to update the copyright years at the
top of the source files. We recommend that you do this for all your
project-specific source files also.
|
|
In time, some of the copyright license description had been mistakenly
shortened to two paragraphs instead of the original three that is
recommended in the GPL. With this commit, they are corrected to be exactly
in the same three paragraph format suggested by GPL.
The following files also didn't have a copyright notice, so one was added
for them:
reproduce/software/make/README.md
reproduce/software/bibtex/healpix.tex
reproduce/analysis/config/delete-me-num.conf
reproduce/analysis/config/verify-outputs.conf
|
|
Until now the shell scripts in the software building phase were in the
`reproduce/software/bash' directory. But given our recent change to a
POSIX-only start, the `configure.sh' shell script (which is the main
component of this directory) is no longer written with Bash.
With this commit, to fix that problem, that directory's name has been
changed to `reproduce/software/shell'.
|
|
In markdown, to specify that part of the text should be shown as code we
need to put it between two `. But in `reproduce/software/make/README.md',
the code parts started with ` and finished in ' (like the file name above).
With this commit, this has been corrected and it will display properly on
web browsers.
|

Until now, the tarballs were the first normal prerequisite of the
software. As a result if their date changed, the whole software would be
re-built. However, for tarballs specifically, we actually check their
contents with a checksum, so their date is irrelevant (if its newer than
the built program, but has the same checksum, there is no need to re-build
the software).
Also, calling the tarball name as an argument to the building process (for
example `gbuild') was redundant. It is now automatically found from the
list of order-only prerequisites within `gbuild' and `cbuild' (similar to
how it was previously found in the `pybuild' for Python building).
A `README.md' file has also been placed in `reproduce/software/make' to
help describe the shared properties of the software building
Makefiles. This will hopefully grow much larger in the future.
