Hm. I'm afraid I do not understand this. I did use the aproach
documented on your website. I'm refering to upstream master at github
which is currently several commits ahead of v1.1.0.

OK, I generated an account and filled a request to join the debian-gis
team.

P.S.:
I tried to build a postgis package (2.1.7) with sfcgal support but this
did not work yet :( "select postgis_sfcgal_version()" does not work
despite the fact, that the library has been linked in:
~/ # ldd /usr/lib/postgresql/9.4/lib/postgis-2.1.so |grep -i sfcgal
libSFCGAL.so.1 => /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libSFCGAL.so.1 (0x00007f36f875b000)
