[Bug 439702] [NEW] Please sync Gwyddion 2.17 from Debian Unstable

[feranick]

Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: gwyddion

Gwyddion 2.17 is available both upstream and in Debian unstable. It is
still in version 2.16 in Karmic.

Changelog:

    * libgwyprocess: Real length of extracted profiles was corrected for very short lines and different vertical and horizontal measures.
    * libgwyprocess: gwy_data_field_area_fit_poly() reall works with NULL mask.
    * libgwyprocess: FFT functions no longer unpredictably lose input data with FFTW3 -- they now use the FFTW_ESTIMATE planner that preserves the input
    * libgwydgets: Resource selection windows can be closed with Esc.

Modules

    * Curvature (new): Calculates global curvature of second-order surfaces.
    * RHK-SM4 (new): Imports RHK Technology SM4 files.
    * IGOR (new): Imports IGOR Pro binary waves (highly experimental).
    * Nanonics (new): Imports Nanonics NAN files (highly experimental).
    * FFT Synthesis (new): Generates random surfaces by spectral synthesis.
    * Object Synthesis (new): Generates random surfaces by object placement.
    * Arithmetic: New quantities bx1, by1, bx2, ..., by5 represent the local x- and y-derivatives.
    * Arithmetic: History of previously used expressions is remembered.
    * Omicron MATRIX: Possible crash was fixed.
    * Createc: Support for floating-point files was added, including compressed data. Module is more robust with respect to broken files.
    * NT-MDT: Support for MDA frames was added.
    * Olympus: Value scales of imported data were corrected.
    * APE file: Support for newer 2.x files was implemented, some units and scales corrected; channels have meaningful names now.
    * MI file: Support for 32bit binary files was added.
    * MicroProf: Can read binary FRT files (the first channel only).
    * Profile: The profile resolution is no longer limited by the data dimensions.
    * Nanoscope: Files broken by line-end transformations are detected and an explanatory error message is given.

Other

    * Forgotten @LIBTIFF@ was removed from gwyddion pkg-config file.
