Bug#731858: O: vxl -- C++ Libraries for Computer Vision Research
Package: wnpp
Severity: normal
I intend to orphan vxl. My initial intention was to package vxl as
dependency of ITK (insighttoolkit). Since it never worked quite right,
ITK is not build using its (custom) convenient copy of VXL.
Currently VXL in debian uses an enormous patch to get SONAME working.
Upstream has never been willing to integrate that back into main code,
even after multiple requests. So minimal skills in C++ is needed to
maintain this package.
Description is:
VXL (the Vision-something-Libraries) is a collection of C++ libraries
designed for computer vision research and implementation. It was created
from TargetJr and the IUE with the aim of making a light, fast and
consistent system. VXL is written in ANSI/ISO C++ and is designed to be
portable over many platforms.
