I've still been using the Makefile to call regression, but could set that up differently.
Oh, and I have been using the top level Makefile not the one in starcheck/data/Makefile. The one you suggest removing seems fine to go.
Since we are still using the agasc.bad list made with bad_stars.py I don't know if we want to remove the script (and manual_bad_stars) until we swap to using the agasc supplement (which I suppose we could do at any point, I was just headed to doing it more via #327 ).
I think of agasc.bad
just being a fixed legacy file that we will continue to use for now but never again update. The bad_stars.py
has not been run since 2015 to update that file, so I really don't see why not to just start tidying up a bit.
The driver of course being that bad_stars.py
uses sybase and gives the appearance of a sybase dependency.
I already removed agasc.bad in the sparkles branch I think, because I was letting sparkles do the bad star tests from the agasc supplement. My point about maybe waiting and removing together was that bad_stars.py at least can tell you why a star is in the current list.
I really don't think we care at this point, and it's going to all be overtaken by mag-stats.
OK. Then this PR could remove the manual stars file and the sausage one too.
Done, removed those two.
Description
Neither of the two scripts are called anywhere and bad_stars.py apparently hasn't been run in 5 years. This is all overtaken by improvements in mica (bad obsid list and mag stats). The bad_stars script relies on an unmaintained sybase table.
The Makefile just seems a leftover from another era, but not 100% sure.
This came up in working on removing Sybase dependencies.
