HiRISE geometry cube failure in cam2map

[richardleis]

ISIS version(s) affected: 8.0.1

Description

A gap in a recent CK SPICE kernel (mro_sc_psp_260217_260223.bc) requires us to use a predict CK SPICE kernel instead (CK_Pred_26051_26060_sc_20260217220604.bc) with spiceinit for a recent HiRISE observation balance cubes. Geometry processing is nominal except for the COLOR4 balance cube. Our RedGeom processing pipeline fails with the following errors:

How to reproduce
% RedGeom -f /HiRISE/Data/HiColorNorm/ESP/ORB_091700_091799/ESP_091769_1330/ESP_091769_1330_COLOR4.cub -conf /HiRISE/Configuration/RedGeom/RedGeom.conf -id {processing node and id}

In RedGeom processing, the following command is run but fails with the above error:

% cam2map from=/tmp/ESP_091769_1330_COLOR4.input.{processing node and id}.cub map=/HiRISE/Data/RedGeom/ESP/ORB_091700_091799/ESP_091769_1330/ESP_091769_1330.map.pvl to=/tmp/ESP_091769_1330_COLOR4.output.{processing node and id}.cub PIXRES=MAP LONSEAM=AUTO INTERP=CUBICCONVOLUTION DEFAULTRANGE=MINIMIZE
