[Debian-astro-maintainers] Bug#811500: cpl-plugin-visir: does not work

[Julian Taylor]

Package: cpl-plugin-visir
Version: 4.1.0+dfsg-1
Severity: serious

the packaged recipe does not work at all for several reasons:

1. removed patched copy of swarp, visir does not work with 2.38, it 
needs 2.19 or the embedded convinience copy. To see run the 
visir_img_reduce recipe on any data and look at the garbage weight map 
it produces
2. does not work with packaged swarp even if that one would work because 
it is name SWarp not swarp as the pipeline expects.
3. the required swarp configuration visir_default.swarp is not installed.

Please spend at least at least the minimal effort to see if what you are 
packaging even works or don't bother at all. Note that in future the 
embedded swarp might receive more visir specific patches.

As upstream does not want this pipeline packaged in distributions I 
would recommend removing it completely.
