      Description

      I just cloned lsstsw. When I ran deploy, it crashed on numdiff.

      I got a lot of repetitions of

      tar: Damaged tar archive
      tar: Retrying...

      and then it crashed because numdiff did not have a configure script (or a Makefile).

      I think this might be a numdiff problem. I tried curling numdiff by hand and the same thing happened.

          it is actually a bit strange that we don't have a numdiff eups package.

          As far as I'm aware, we don't actually use numdiff anywhere: it's entirely vestigial. I think we can just drop it entirely.

          it looks like the tarball has been modified upstream without changing the timestamp – very worrying. I can't identify any user of numdiff since John Swinbank re-plumbed the demo. I have opened a PR to simply remove the numdiff installation.

          Travis passed on linux (OSX is still in flight). I have gone ahead and merged the PR.

          As an aside, I sent an email to the savanah help list. An admin has confirmed that the file is corrupted but the cause is not yet known.
