 Yes of course
 I also plan to merge gmsh-tetgen with gmsh as there is no more issue with 
 non-free software.
 I manage to build gmsh-tetgen with tetgen, netgen 5.1… but I need to patch 
 gush for metis.
 Then we can complete the merge.

Hello Christophe and Anton,
I would like to thank you for working on the gmsh Debian package.


However, I would like to point out that the GNU AfferoGPL v3 is a
controversial license: despite being considered acceptable [1] for
Debian main by Debian ftp-masters, it is considered non-free by a
number of people (including me [2]...).

[1] https://bugs.debian.org/495721#17
[2] https://bugs.debian.org/495721#28

Please note that I am *not* a member of the Debian Project, I am
just an external contributor who's very interested (among other things)
in licensing issues.


Since I think the GNU AfferoGPL v3 is non-free, I would like to kindly
ask you to only enable tetgen in gmsh as an optional feature.

In other words, I hope there will still be the possibility to install
and use the gmsh Debian package *without* installing the tetgen Debian
package and *without* unpacking AfferoGPL-licensed files onto the
system. That is to say, no strong dependencies on tetgen or inclusion
of tetgen files into the gmsh package, please!

I really hope this can be done.
Thanks for your time and patience.

Bug#736916: [tetgen] please upgrade to 1.5.0

2014-01-28 Thread trophime
Package: tetgen
Version: 1.5.0-1.1
Severity: wishlist

Please upgrade to 1.5.0
Now tetgen is licenced under AGPLv3
I believe that the package could therefore go to contrib

You can find a tentative upgrade on Debian Science svn repository
Could someone review this package?

Hi Christophe!

Good to know, that tetgen has been relicensed!
I will try to upload it in the evening.

Could, you, please, then have a look at gmsh to enable this feature there?

Thanks,

Anton

PS: could you also take a look at mmg3d an 3d anisotropic meshed that is also 
used in
gmsh and freefrem++

 
 Thanks,
