missing mkfloat.csh #9

Closed vall33 closed 5 years ago

vall33 commented 5 years ago

Hi,

I installed the main IRAF and it worked ok. When I tried compiling fitsutil I encountered a problem. It seems that mkfloat.csh (and possibly other *.csh files) are missing in $hlib and fitsutil would not compile

That is actually a problem in fitsutil. In IRAF 2.16.1, mkfloat.csh was replaced by the /bin/sh variant mkfloat.sh by NOAO (and unfortunately the suffix refers to this implementation detail).

Did you use the fitsutil from github? Then, I would move this issue there (and fix it later).

yes, I used fitsutil from github

The fix is to replace all mkfloat.csh by mkfloat.sh in the file mkpkg. I'll change this in the repository, but you may just make this in your local copy to proceed.
