Update set_maskbits to using the latest version of idlutils #62

Closed albireox closed 3 years ago

albireox commented 3 years ago

This updates set_maskbits to use v5_5_33 which will be the tagged version for DR17. We have added documentation on how to use pydl to deal with SDSS bitmasks and it would be nice to have the latest version by default.

The test failures are due to the fork not having access to Coveralls. I the actual change is safe. How urgent is this to get into a tagged version though?

albireox commented 3 years ago

DR17 is scheduled for Dec 2021 so not immediately urgent. v5_5_33 is most likely the final tag of idlutils for DR17.

weaverba137 commented 3 years ago

No worries then. My timescale for the next tag is hopefully in the next couple of weeks.

@albireox, sorry for the delay. Merging now. I'll get 1.0.0rc2 released soon which will be the first tagged version to have this change.
