- An Astrometric Plate Solver for Mac, Linux, and Windows, built on
Astrometry.net and SEP (sextractor)
- Meant to be an internal library for use in a program like KStars for internal
plate solving on all supported operating systems
- Python is not required for the library
- Netpbm is not required for the library
- Internal Library, so calls to external programs are not required
- No Astrometry.cfg file is needed, the settings are internal to the program
- Directly loads the image data into SEP and then takes the generated xy-list
internally from Sextractor into astrometry.net, so there is no need to save
any files.
- No temporary files need to be created for solving and no WCS file needs to be
created to read the solved information. Although astrometry.net does monitor
for the creation of 2 files indicating that a field is solved or a cancel was
made, so these are created for now.
- The Index Files are still required for solving images, but the program or the
user can specify the folder locations rather than putting them in the config
file.
astro/stellarsolver: Upgrade to 2.4 and fix build on -CURRENT with GNU qsort_r.
PR: ports/266227, ports/266574
Reported by: antoine (via exp-run)
Approved by: maintainer (acm@)
Mk/Uses: always use colon for build/run suffix
Most USES use a colon for build/run(/test) suffixes. Change kde.mk,
qt.mk and pyqt.mk to do the same, and update all ports using that.
Document in CHANGES.

Remove WWW entries moved into port Makefiles
Commit b7f05445c00f has added WWW entries to port Makefiles based on
WWW: lines in pkg-descr files.
This commit removes the WWW: lines of moved-over URLs from these
pkg-descr files.
Approved by: portmgr (tcberner)
Add WWW entries to port Makefiles
It has been common practice to have one or more URLs at the end of the
ports' pkg-descr files, one per line and prefixed with "WWW:". These
URLs should point at a project website or other relevant resources.
Access to these URLs required processing of the pkg-descr files, and
they have often become stale over time. If more than one such URL was
present in a pkg-descr file, only the first one was tarnsfered into
the port INDEX, but for many ports only the last line did contain the
port specific URL to further information.
There have been several proposals to make a project URL available as
a macro in the ports' Makefiles, over time.
