Deprecated Basis Splines functions

[Andrew Forembski]

Hi,

Up until the release of gsl 2.8 I was using the functions:
gsl_bspline_eval_nonzero(...)
gsl_bspline_deriv_eval_nonzero(...)

to evaluate B-splines functions and their derivatives at specific points
along an axis in my program.
These functions seem to have been removed as of gsl 2.8, I have been able
to replace them with:
gsl_bspline_basis(...)
gsl_bspline_basis_deriv(...)

My issue is that there seems to be no note on deprecated functions in the
2.8 documentation and I don't seem to be able to find the documentation for
gsl < 2.8.
Are the functions gsl_bspline_basis and gsl_bspline_basis_deriv available
in earlier versions?
I'm asking this because I'm trying to keep my code portable and would
ideally prefer not requiring gsl to be updated to 2.8 as some users may be
on systems where this has to be done manually.

Would you have any suggestions regarding this problem?

Kind regards,
Andrew
