Very usefull to easily create models that can be exported into Sweet Home 3D...

CGAL shouldn't be an issue for people wanting to use the program, as the parts are either dual licensed GPL+commercial or LGPL+commercial, so the combination of dust3d and cgal can be used under GPL. CGAL is also already packaged in nixpkgs.

The weirdly licensed dependency is actually instant-meshes, which appears to be BSD 3-clause with an added paragraph.

I had a quick look at packaging this. Frankly, it's a massive pain, as many of the dependencies are "vendored", for example, instant-meshes doesn't build a static or shared library which can be linked against by dust3d, so dust3d needs the entire instant-meshes source tree in a subdirectory. instant-meshes itself has at least six vendored dependencies of its own, with no option to use system libraries instead, even if they exist.

Yeah, seems complicated. They also provide appimage, is it an option to use this in nixpkgs? I tested it and it works, well, I guess it is missing icons, but I am not sure as I use i3 and I am not used to see much icons anyway :)
