Fate of SFCGAL in Debian
The fate of SFCGAL in Debian looks grim. The build failure reported in
#876521 remains unfixed, and there hasn't been any activity in the
upstream repo since September. The activity before that was worrying low
then as well.
The SFCGAL support in the postgis package will be disabled when the CGAL
transitions starts and no fix for #876521 is available. Since SFCGAL is
not in healthy state upstream, I will follow up on the postgis change by
having the sfcgal package removed from Debian.
If there are people that would like for SFCGAL to remain in Debian,
please get involved with the upstream project and help fix its worrying
state.
Kind Regards,
Bas
