Removing configure option for Gnuastro 0.5

Removing configure option for Gnuastro 0.5

[Mohammad Akhlaghi]

Dear Guix developers,

This is Mohammad Akhlaghi, the maintainer of GNU Astronomy Utilities.

Gnuastro 0.5 was just released and since it is also packaged in Guix, I 
wanted to let you know that the `--enable-bin-op-alltypes' configure 
time option is now removed (it was added with the 0.3 release).

You kindly added this configure time option after my request in June 
2017 (link below). I now found a good way to solve the problem, so this 
option is also removed.

Thank you very much,
Mohammad

Thanks for the reminder!

I notice our package is using libjpeg-8, while we also have libjpeg-9
available. Gnuastro seems to build fine with libjpeg-9, but I don't know
how to actually test it. Do you know if we can use libjpeg-9 for our
Gnuastro packaging?

There shouldn't be any problem with libjpeg-9. 

Several tests of libjpeg are made during "make check". So if nothing fails there, then Gnuastro has used libjpeg-9 properly. Maybe this is the simplest test.

Thanks again,
Mohammad

Okay, thanks for the info.
