Hi

I am trying to compile CGAL 4.02 which I downloaded from
https://gforge.inria.fr/frs/?group_id=52

I want to use surface meshing algorithms which, I read somewhere, require
the TAUCS lib.

When I looked into the installation manual for CGAL at
http://www.cgal.org/Manual/latest/doc_html/installation_manual/Chapter_installation_manual.html#Subsection_10.4

it says "The usage of Eigen allows to remove lapack, blas and Taucs from the
list of third party libraries required by some Cgal packages. Note that the
version 3.1 (or greater) of Eigen is required."

So I downloaded and installed EIGEN, then I stated to build cgal


cmake (this part puzzles me since there is no mention to EIGEN or TAUCS)
make
make install

It installs until the end, no problem.

My problem is when I try to compile code from CGAL example that does surface
reconstruction from point sets

http://www.cgal.org/Manual/latest/doc_html/cgal_manual/Surface_reconstruction_points_3/Chapter_main.html

The compilation gives out the following

/usr/local/include/CGAL/Taucs_fix.h:47:23: fatal error: taucs.h: No such
file or directory

But since I installed EIGEN why is it looking for TAUCS?

Should I add some cmake flag to compile with EIGEN?

Thanks for the help

Miguel Oliveira
