Hi Roy, ..are you (one of) the Debian maintainer(s) of SG|FG etc .debs? I'm going to try (learn) build these and brlcad right out of git, brlcad-7.14.0 fails to build from source for me and I'd like to make FG style deb build scripts work for brlcad and then try put brlcad's program naming scheme into SG|FG|TG etc to use that scheme to allow several FG builds to co-exist as .debs and .rpms etc on the same box.
..and I'm firmly convinced the FG developers wanna see me eat some compile log crow for my yakkin' ;o), before things like brlcad renaming and sim sea level rise start happening.
