Re: Bug#426581: meshlab - anyone still working on this



Hi all,

I made a small effort to bring the meshlab package up to date with the
current CVS version, but had to give up. There were some errors on the
code, such as missing functions or declarations (I probably hit the
CVS on a wrong day), but what stopped me was that the dependency on
lib3ds-dev is to version 1.3.0, which is not in Debian yet (bug report
filed, see #463108).

In order to let others take a stab on packaging, I will let launchpad
host my bzr branches, and will grant access to anyone who's interested
(Gurkan?). Launchpad should also automatically import code from the
sourceforge CVS to the "trunk" branch. See
https://code.launchpad.net/meshlab if interested.

Code tarballs from upstream with the useful parts from vcg needed to
build meshlab would really help. Now the meshlab-debian branch at
launchpad has these bits copied manually from a CVS checkout made on
the same day as meshlab was updated.

Best,

Teemu
