Package name : geant4 Version : 10.6.2 Upstream Author : CERN URL : http://geant4.web.cern.ch/ License : a custom (MIT-like) license but looks DFSG compliant Programming Lang: C++ Description : physics simulation toolkit Geant4 is a toolkit for the simulation of the passage of particles through matter. Its areas of application include high energy, nuclear and accelerator physics, as well as studies in medical and space science. Overall, it is pretty hard to build Geant4 nicely. Besides it's size and long compilation time (~15 minutes for me), the CMake build system breaks with a lot of Debian conventions. There is nothing really I can do about that in a reasonable amount of time, so the lintian output is pretty ugly and that probably won't change any time soon if there are no upstream changes. The endresult is usable though, so I will publish the my build files soon. If there is interest to help on this, please let me know. Cheers, Stephan
