Bug#694879: blender: Blender 2.63a-1 is missing Collada import/export support

[Sebastian Rasmussen]

Package: blender
Version: 2.63a-1
Severity: wishlist

Dear Maintainer,

I have attempted to import a Collada-file (.dae) into Blender packaged for
Debian/testing. Unfortunately Collada is not present in the import menu, and
not under User preferences > Addons > Import/Export either (if so I would
be able to enable it).

I downloaded Debian's source package for Blender and discovered in
CMakeLists.txt that Colldada is actively disabled there becuase OpenCollada
has not been packaged for Debian. So basically I guess I'm wishing for it
to be packaged and for Debian Blender package to enable use of it. :)

 / Sebastian
