Mariusz Tarnopolski noticed the following issue in GLEAM:
"When an absorption line is fitted, the corresponding amplitude is negative, which results in a negative EW_rest (which can be positive or negative depending on convention), but then - as per line 80 of gaussian_fitting.py - this negative value it carried on to the error, which should always be positive. So I just changed v to abs(v) in that line of the code."

This should be an easy fix as Mariusz suggests.
