leonarski_fandClaude Opus 4.8 e5034d0a2c licenses: add third-party notices, attribution texts, and viewer license window
Acknowledge all bundled third-party software and satisfy attribution/notice
requirements, while keeping it maintainable:

- THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md: human-readable manifest (component, copyright, SPDX
  license, link) for fetched, vendored, and runtime/SDK dependencies.
- licenses/: verbatim license texts; COLLECT.sh regenerates them from the
  build trees and system SDK locations.
- Bundle the verbatim Qt LGPL-3.0 text and the CUDA Toolkit 12.8 EULA.
- frontend: self-contained npm attribution generator (`npm run licenses` ->
  dist/THIRD_PARTY_LICENSES.txt), wired into the frontend build target.
- Install LICENSE + notices + licenses/ into share/doc/jfjoch for every
  packaged component.
- viewer: Help > "Third-party Licenses" window (QTextBrowser) showing a
  generated, self-contained HTML built from licenses/.
- docs/SOFTWARE.md: drop the stale hand-kept dependency lists; point at the
  manifest.

Software requirements

Operating system

Recommended operating system is Red Hat Enterprise Linux (RHEL) / Rocky Linux versions 8 or 9. For this operating systems we provide RPMs with pre-built binaries to simplify deployment. On experimental basis we also build repositories for Ubuntu 22.04 and 24.04.

Running Jungfraujoch on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 7 is currently not tested and not recommended, but likely possible with providing some packages from external repositories.

Software dependencies

Required:

Optional:

  • CUDA compiler version 12.8 or newer - required for the MX fast feedback indexer and GPU analysis
  • FFTW library - for indexing if GPU/CUDA is absent (also auto-downloaded by CMake)
  • Node.js - to build the frontend
  • Qt version 6 (for jfjoch_viewer)

Many further dependencies (spdlog, Zstandard, HDF5, slsDetectorPackage, libzmq, libtiff, libjpeg-turbo, Eigen, Ceres, the fast feedback indexer, Catch2, ...) are downloaded automatically by CMake and statically linked; building therefore requires network access on the first configure. Others are vendored directly in the source tree. The complete list of third-party components, with copyright holders, licenses and verbatim license texts, is in THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.md and the licenses/ directory.
