Bug Description
Binary package hint: k3d
A very fundamental CAD operation namely the Boolean operations are perfomed by the CGALBoolean plugin.
Unfortunately this is missing in k3d 0.8.0.2-2 of Ubuntu distro (Maverick), although in windows this plugin is included.
Kindly add this and rebuild k3d. Thank you.

You can get that module enabled by adding the following to build-depends in the control file:
libcgal-dev (>= 3.6), libmpfr-dev (>= 3.0), libgmp3-dev
In Debian repositories that would render the package to depend on non-free libraries (CGAL) and would require significant changes, that's why this is not enable.
Is this CGALBoolean module very important? If so, I can try to work out some solution, enabling a separate package containing modules depending on non-free libarries.
Are the any other missing features? I'm looking forward to feedback from real users of the package.
