Bug#457075: Salomé packaging



Thank you Andre, the debian-science entry looks terrific!

It's very frustrating that bug 510057 against hdf5 is nearly 16 months
old, and there has been a simple patch available for 3.5 months, but
they have just added a new upstream version, with no progress on this or
571453. :-(  I'm going to send a reminder to these two bugs.

I've tagged what's on lyre as -5 in alioth, and am working toward -6.
I'm also trying to get NETGENPLUGIN working, and have started a port to
the nglib 4.9.x API.  But I'm having trouble, as you'll see if you try
to build with it enabled (I disabled it in debian/rules for now).

I did notice a post on "Netgen and Salome" on the Netgen forum [1]
indicating that Salome developers are porting to the 4.9.x nglib.h API,
so I guess we'll be able to see that in the git repository [2] soon.
But the repository currently doesn't test for the new API, so if a port
is in progress, it's not in git yet...

[2] http://git.salome-platform.org/gitweb/?p=NETGENPLUGIN_SRC.git;a=summary

I need this plugin for my own purposes, so after finishing an overall
package which is upload-worthy I'm going to keep working on it.
