While it seems you have sorted out your problem it might be sufficient to install cme from unstable on top of a stable / testing system (I'm using both (stable at work and testing at home). > I've added test for checking result files and another call with non-default > parameter set from readme (I decided not to move it to separate file > because these two calls look almost the same, although setting up some > additional parameters can change output file appearance.

I do not find any question in this paragraph. Please be more verbose in case you might expect some sensible answer from me. ;-) > 2016-05-24 18:21 GMT+03:00 Andreas Tille <[email protected]>: > > > > > BTW, the currently *real* issue in concavity is bug #822382[1]. > > > > One possible solution - to modify upstream by removing ply.* files (and > .ply format support) and their usage entirely: it seems that it can be used > only as one of many possibilities for mesh serialization/deserialization. > Concavity doesn't rely on that format for data storing or anything, typical > input and output would be given in other formats (I've already checked > locally, it can be quite easily removed).

Packaging wise we should add the non-free files in debian/copyright Files-Excluded field and recreate the upstream tarball. The work-around code should be added as quilt patches - see my other mail to Canberk if you are not comfortable with quilt. > > Upstream has not answered my mail since 20 days.

No. Here you can see whom I have contacted: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=822382#10 > It's the best contact > I could find.

Please let me know if you want to forward my message in the bug tracking system yourself by adding your comments above or if I should forward it. Your technical input and the contact information is very valuable. If you think Tony Capra is the best contact we should fix the Upstream-Contact field in debian/copyright accordingly. > > We need to sort out the origin of these two files - otherwise the > > package needs to be moved to non-free. > > > Now I'm working on conservation-code (this time I'll do it faster >.< ). :-) Kind regards Andreas. -- http://fam-tille.de
