Changes between HIPE 7.1 and 7.2

Core

• Improved support for Python variable types (PyList, PyDictionary, PyFunction) as task parameters.
• Fixed a problem with getTagUrnMap(), which would return malformed Urn objects.

HIFI

• Fixed a problem that would cause an error when trying to run FitHifiFringe on the HRS-V-LSB level2 product of an ObservationContext.
• Fixed a problem with the fitHifiFringe task used with the subBase=True option. This would cause offsets to appear in baseline levels between WBS subbands for bands 6 and 7.
• Fixed an error that would cause the instruction from herschel.hifi.scripts.users.share.all import * to fail.
• Fixed an error that would cause the command from herschel.hifi.share import * not to import the UtilHifi class.

PACS

• Fixed many incomplete metadata values in Level 2.5 products.
• Fixed the description metadata value not being filled in many Level 0.5, 1 and 2 products.
• Fixed a problem with generating the WCS for observations crossing the 24h/0h Right Ascension boundary.
• Fixed some typos in Level 2 metadata
• Fixed a problem with the photRespFlatfieldCorrection, that would cause an error with a very long slew followed by a short observation.

SPIRE

• Beam areas in the Data Reduction Guide have been updated.
