Thank you very much for pointing out this important bug. It has been fixed and has been pushed to master.

Since the first official release is just about to be made, and this is a very noticible bug, I went through all the error messages and tried to address the issue (no capital letters at the start of message and no periods in the end) before the first release.

This item has been reassigned from the project GNU Astronomy Utilities task tracker to your tracker.

The original report is still available at task #13798

Following are the information included in the original report:

[field #0]                  Item ID: 13798
[field #1]                 Group ID: 11425
[field #2]              Open/Closed: Open
[field #3]                 Severity: 3 - Normal

[field #13]                  Summary: Error messages don't conform to GNU Coding Standards
[field #14]      Original Submission: According GNU Coding Standards (https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/standards.html#Errors) «The string message should not begin with a capital letter when it follows a program name and/or file name, because that isn’t the beginning of a sentence. (The sentence conceptually starts at the beginning of the line.) Also, it should not end with a period.»  In Gnuastro none of these suggestions is applied.

I can take care of this task after addressing task #13765 (it doesn't need to be completed, just to rename all files and functions).
