I resolved my problem with compiling with -DCGAL_CH_NO_POSTCONDITIONS
and now it's work well but I would like to know how this problem appears
and if I disable this option it possible to have concave objects?

Thank you in advance!

Hello cgal users!

I performed a convex hull of a set a 3D points. I know that the set of points define a convex volume. I use the function CGAL::convex_hull_3 on my points list. I obtain a Polyhedron_3 in almost cases but one time a have the error message:

CGAL error: postcondition violation!
Expr: is_strongly_convex_3(P, traits)
File: /home/Chavent_Matthieu/CGAL-3.2.1/include/CGAL/convex_hull_3.h
Line: 468
Aborted (core dumped)

It is very strange because I know that the sets of points that form the Polyhedron define a convex volume: So, I would like to know if somebody had the same problem and How can I get through this error.

Thank you in advance!
