Wed 13 May 2020 06:15:11 AM UTC, comment #1: I implemented 80% of the FITS 4.0 standard a few months ago in Scala language (https://www.scala-lang.org/) and I don't remember any recommendations on how to organize the HDUs. Hence, the message was strange to me.

It was recently mentioned in bug-gnuastro@gnu.org that the statement "Gnuastro leaves the first HDU blank (with no data) and writes the outputs in the second HDU. " is not actually recommended in the FITS standard (as suggested when the error message).

The correction in the previous commit doesn't cause confusions any more and there was no discussion afterwards. So I am closing this bug.
