  Description     : Software library for collision detection of geometric
  objects in 3D space.

Collision detection is the process of detecting pairs of objects that are
intersecting or are within a given proximity of each other. SOLID contains
operations for performing intersection tests and proximity queries on a wide
variety of shape types, including: deformable triangle meshes, boxes,
ellipsoids, and convex polyhedra.

Since it exploits temporal coherence in a number of ways, SOLID is
especially useful for detecting collisions between objects that move
smoothly over time. The motions of objects are controlled by the client
application, and are not determined or affected by SOLID.

Although it can be used for physics-based simulations, SOLID is not a
physics engine by itself. SOLID leaves it up to the application programmer
how the laws of physics are implemented.

Please note that Solid is also a technology in kde and currently
/usr/lib/libsolid* is in use by the kde packaging.

So you need to be careful to not interfere with that.

Well, I will have to rename the library :-(. I didn't notice that. I looked if
there's some package with that name, but I couldn't imaging that kdelibs5 has
a library with that name and not a ksolid, or whatever.

Thank's for the point.

Ok,

looking the situation and seeing that the project has its last free version,
we have created a fork, with the name solid3D so I hope that it will not
interfere in any other lib.

Hi,

This is an automatic email to change the status of solid back from ITP
(Intent to Package) to RFP (Request for Package), because this bug hasn't seen
any activity during the last 12 months.

If you are still interested in adopting solid, please send a mail to
<control@bugs.debian.org> with:

 retitle 500616 ITP: solid -- Software library for collision detection of geometric objects in 3D space
 owner 500616 !
 thanks

However, it is not recommended to keep ITP for a long time without acting on
the package, as it might cause other prospective maintainers to refrain from
packaging that software. It is also a good idea to document your progress on
this ITP from time to time, by mailing <500616@bugs.debian.org>.

Thank you for your interest in Debian,
