(Quite a few rdeps have this list set as maintainer address. Re-sending my
initial mail directly to the list instead of $rdep at packages.d.o, which was
blocked due to too many recipients.)
Dear maintainers of reverse-dependencies of CGAL,
CGAL 6.0 is planned to be released at the end of the year. This version will
require C++17 or later. It might be good idea to check already now whether your
software can be built with that C++ standard version and take appropriate
actions otherwise.
cloudcompare/gudhi/openems/openscad only: Your package additionally
build-depends on libcgal-qt5-dev. CGAL will switch to Qt6 in version 6.0 (and
drop Qt5 support). Does your software also plan to migrate to Qt6, or does it
support it already?
Best regards,
Joachim
