GreatCMakeCookOff was needed as build dependencies to package "purify"
and "sopt"; there were however some (IMO valid) doubts on the quality of
the package.

Both packages are publicly available now:

https://github.com/basp-group/sopt
https://github.com/basp-group/purify

and it turns out that the amount of code that is actually *used* from
GreatCMakeCookOff is rather limited. Also, after some discussion,
upstream agreed to remove this dependency anyway.

Therefore, the best solution is to include the needed code into purify
and sopt via patching for the time being:

https://anonscm.debian.org/cgit/debian-astro/packages/sopt.git/tree/debian/patches/Remove-reference-to-GreatCMakeCookOff.patch

(for purify it works similarly, just not pushed yet).

So, GreatCMakeCookOff is not needed anymore, I will *not* package it,
and anyone should be happy ;-)

However, if there someone could give me (as an almost-CMAKE-illiterate)
a one-liner how to test for specific headers and libraries (namely
libcfitsio-dev and libfftw3-dev), then I could remove even more ...

Best regards, and thanks for the discussion

Ole
