      Description

      We need to check running actor versions and alert on any possible discrepancies. Specifically:

      • alert when a running actor's version differs from the current eups version
      • alert when the version of any running actor's dependencies differs from the version installed with the running actor.

      We can additionally note (but not as a warning/alert) when a newer version of a dependency is available. Not sure about this.

      The proposal is to have the checks done in the existing version command, as implemented in ics_utils. The result would be propagated in a a new field added to the end of the existing *_version keys.

      As far as displaying the issues go, we propose adding a new "channel" to the existing alertsActor for displaying "observing" warnings. Besides these version mismatches, some obvious keys might be ingest/reduce errors, or timing problems (getVisit, convergence ,ramp writes, etc), etc. These would be enumerated by adding a new field to the existing actorkeys dictionaries, just as we do for FITS and STS flags.

      Obviously, child tickets to be linked in.
