 From the README.txt of Qhull:

 Qhull computes convex hulls, Delaunay triangulations, Voronoi diagrams,
 furthest-site Voronoi diagrams, and halfspace intersections about a point.
 It runs in 2-d, 3-d, 4-d, or higher.  It implements the Quickhull
 algorithm
 for computing convex hulls.   Qhull handles round-off errors from floating
 point arithmetic.  It can approximate a convex hull.

 The program includes options for hull volume, facet area, partial hulls,
 input transformations, randomization, tracing, multiple output formats,
 and
 execution statistics.

 First attempt at a spkg is at:
