Update packaging for RL8
Description
This updates the packaging of LALInference, LALPulsar, and LALApps to support building on RL8:
- LALInference is updated to not build against the MPI libraries, the way MPI codes need to be packaged changed in RHEL8 and is documented here, so we simply get around this by removing MPI from the RPMs. If the MPI codes are required they are available from Conda.
- LALPulsar was updated to not include the hardware injection codes as this requires
cds-crtools
which is not available for RL8 via RPM and the CDS team have no plans to provide support for RPMs. These codes are included with the Conda packages for LALPulsar. - A bug was fixed in the LALApps dependencies which had it depending on
python2
.
