The Additional Software portion of the Installation wiki page says this:

Many of the pulsar tools have been deprecated and removed from the Fermitools. They were not being used by the pulsar community and have not really had anyone to support them for a while. The pulsar community instead uses tools like tempo2 and PRESTO. Please look into using those tools for pulsar analysis.

I suggest updating that to this text:

Many of the pulsar tools have been deprecated and removed from the Fermitools. They were not being used by the pulsar community and have not been well supported them for some time. The pulsar community instead uses tools like PINT, the fermi plugin for tempo2 and PRESTO. Please look into using those tools for pulsar analysis.
