* Package name : x11iraf Version : 2.0~BETA Upstream Author : National Optical Astronomy Observatories * URL : http://iraf.noao.edu * License : MIT, with no-ad clause Description : Graphical tools to work with IRAF x11iraf provides graphical tools to work with IRAF, notably xgterm and XImtool. IRAF (Image Reduction and Analysis Facility) is a general purpose software system for the reduction and analysis of astronomical data. This was in Debian until ~2004 [1], packaged by Zed Pobre, which then was removed; mainly due to the licensing problem of IRAF. Since IRAF is now covered by a DFSG compliant license, it is going to be packaged now[2], and it makes sense to bring x11iraf back as well. The package is not 64-bit clean (and probably never will, according to upstream [3]), so the build will be limited to 32-bit platforms.
