It provides access to qhull's core algorithms for computing convex hulls, Delaunay triangulations, Voronoi diagrams, and halfspace intersections without requiring compilation on the target system.\n\nThe package is maintained as part of the cmake-wheel project and ships as platform-specific binary wheels for macOS and Linux across multiple architectures. It depends on the cmeel runtime package to function. The last release was in November 2023, but the repository remains active with recent commits.","worth_installing":"Yes, if you need qhull functionality and want to avoid compilation overhead. The broad binary wheel coverage and active maintenance reduce friction. However, install only after clarifying the upstream license terms\u2014the package metadata does not declare them, creating legal ambiguity for proprietary or copyleft-sensitive projects.
