Random #Debian Astro package of the week is libccfits-dev. CCfits is an object oriented interface to the cfitsio library. It is designed to make the capabilities of cfitsio available to programmers working in C++. It is written in ANSI C++ and implemented using the C++ Standard Library with namespaces, exception handling, and member template functions.
This package contains what you need for compiling sources that use

Random #Debian Astro package of the week is libhealpix-cxx-dev. HEALPix is an acronym for Hierarchical Equal Area isoLatitude Pixelization of a sphere. As suggested in the name, this pixelization produces a subdivision of a spherical surface in which each pixel covers the same surface area as every other pixel. It is commonly used to store all-sky astronomical images, most famously maps of the cosmic microwave background.

Random #Debian Astro package of the week is libastro-fits-cfitsio-perl. Astro::Fits::Cfitsio is a Perl interface to William Pence's cfitsio subroutine library. For more information on cfitsio, see http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/fitsio.
This module attempts to provide a wrapper for nearly every cfitsio routine, while retaining as much cfitsio behavior as possible. As such, one should be aware that it is still somewhat

Random #Debian Astro package of the week is casacore-dev. The casacore package contains the core libraries of the old AIPS++/CASA (Common Astronomy Software Applications) package. This split was made to get a better separation of core libraries and applications.
This package contains the files for application development.

Random #Debian Astro package of the week is libgsl-dev. The GNU Scientific Library (GSL) is a collection of routines for numerical analysis. The routines are written from scratch by the GSL team in C, and present a modern API for C programmers, while allowing wrappers to be written for very high level languages.
This package contains the header files, static libraries and symbolic links that developers using GNU GSL will

Random #Debian Astro package of the week is libstarlink-pal-dev. This library is a collection of code designed to aid in replacing the SLA library with code from NOVAS and ERFA.
Where possible the API is similar to the C SLA API except for the use of a "pal" prefix.
This package contains the development files.

Random #Debian Astro package of the week is libstarlink-ast-dev. AST implements an object oriented model for describing physical coordinate systems, and the transformations that exist between them.
It provides a comprehensive range of facilities for attaching world coordinate systems (WCS) to astronomical data and for retrieving and manipulating that information.
It has built-in intelligence for identifying types of
