Post-O2 Release 1

This is the first post-O2 release of PyCBC for analysis of data taken during Advanced LIGO's second observing run and Advanced Virgo's first observing run.

This release has been tested against LALSuite with the hash:

539c8700af92eb6dd00e0e91b9dbaf5bae51f004

This release brings the build and test system up to date with the recent Travis changes to use the Trusty build environment as the default platform. It switches the build of the LIGO Data Grid-compatible virtual environment in CVMFS to use the LIGO lalsuite-dev Docker container (for parity with the Debian LDG CVMFS installation).

Details of the changes since the final O2 production release are at v1.7.11...v1.8.0

On a machine with CVMFS installed, a pre-built virtual environment is available for Red Hat 7 compatible operating systems by running the command:

source /cvmfs/oasis.opensciencegrid.org/ligo/sw/pycbc/x86_64_rhel_7/virtualenv/pycbc-v1.8.0/bin/activate

and for Debian 8 compatible operating systems by running the command:

source /cvmfs/oasis.opensciencegrid.org/ligo/sw/pycbc/x86_64_deb_8/virtualenv/pycbc-v1.8.0/bin/activate

A bundled pycbc_inspiral executable for use on the Open Science Grid is available at

/cvmfs/oasis.opensciencegrid.org/ligo/sw/pycbc/x86_64_rhel_6/bundle/v1.8.0/pycbc_inspiral
