No problem, although I may not have that much time to contribute at the moment.

According to upstream, the VCG library is very tightly coupled to
Meshlab, and they should be updated (from CVS) together. I solved this
simply by importing the VCG sources to the debian orig.tar and not
having a separate package for VCG.

I have some other bzr branches of Meshlab and VCG in my computer,
which I also can put online (upstream sources contain some non-DFSG
material which needs to be pruned from the Debian sources), but
unfortunately not just now, maybe tomorrow.

Best,

Teemu
