Thanks Mario, Yep, there was a typo in my release-info that I fixed locally but hadn’t pushed to GitHub. It should work now.
I had a little trouble getting the test-new-egg working because it wanted the openssl egg and there is apparently an issue with a deprecated openssl library on macOS. I tried it on my debian machine though and it worked fine. The constellation function is from v0.16 of libnova, so apt-get doesn’t install the current version. I was aware this was an issue and was debating if I should make ephem backward compatible or just document the issue. (v0.16 is here: git://git.code.sf.net/p/libnova/libnova libnova-libnova) — Rob > On Jan 21, 2017, at 3:28 AM, Mario Domenech Goulart <ma...@parenteses.org> > wrote: > > Hi Rob, > > On Fri, 20 Jan 2017 22:15:11 -0500 Rob Altenburg <r...@qrpc.com> wrote: > >> This egg contains bindings to the libnova library which is "a general >> purpose, double precision, Celestial Mechanics, Astrometry and >> Astrodynamics library" available under the GNU LPGL. >> >> See: https://github.com/RobAltenburg/ephem >> >> There is no documentation in the wiki yet, but I’ll work on that. >> >> Working on this egg has been a learning process.
