<p>Hi guys!</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>There was a PDAL package up to Debian Bullseye
<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/pdal"><https://packages.debian.org/bullseye/pdal></a>, and you are
listed as the former maintainers of it.<br>
</p>
Then it fell out of maintenance and was no longer available as
Debian package since.<br>
<p>I need PDAL for my work, and an official Debian package would be
so convenient.<br>
Also, Debian's CloudCompare
<a class="moz-txt-link-rfc2396E" href="https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/cloudcompare"><https://packages.debian.org/bookworm/cloudcompare></a> no
longer supports LAS/LAZ files since the loss of PDAL.</p>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>I would like to understand why PDAL was removed in Debian
Bookworm:</p>
<ul>
<li>Was it lack of time to keep it supported, or for technical
reasons, or for other reasons?<br>
</li>
<li>To save you typing, is there some public mailing
list/discussion about that, can you give me the link(s)?</li>
</ul>
<p><br>
</p>
<p>Thanks for a short response & best regards<br>
Christian Fuchs</p>
