 From Polymake SPKG.txt (#20892):

 Should convert this old-style Sage package:
  - qhull

 Software that currently would need to be installed manually (no Sage
 package
 available) for a more featureful Polymake installation:
  - azove,
  - porta,
  - vinci,
  - SplitsTree4,
  - bliss (needs Debian patches; can't use the existing Sage package --
 #20901)

 It does seem a bit like we're duplicating Debian packaging... In any case,
 patches can be lifted from there or other distributions.

Comment (by mkoeppe):

 Replying to [comment:1 dimpase]:
 > bliss is a part of Sage, as an optional package. Although it currently
 installs as a static library only. I don't know in which form it is needed
 by polymake.

 Right, I've deleted "old-style" in the description. See #20901 for
 details.
