Dear maintainer,

while investigating the consequences of uploading CGAL 6.0 I noticed that your
package declares a build-dependency on libcgal-dev, but apparently does not use
CGAL at all (-DNO_CGAL, use of C++11 even though CGAL 6 requires C++17, build
succeeds without that build dependency). If that conclusion is correct, please
considering dropping the build dependency to ease the transition.

Best regards,
  Joachim
