Hello Anand,
No, that will not suffice: the program has to be rebuilt (and if you are
new to Ubuntu, probably you don't know how, however there are guides
around). The instructions were mostly directed at Ubuntu packagers,
which might want to modify the Debian package that I create.
However, there is a deeper problem: the CGAL libs that this module
depends on, are in a separate repository ("multiverse", for non-free
software, software which has licensing problems of some kind). I don't
know if K-3D can stay in "universe" repository if it depends on software
in "multiverse". In Debian, the names are different but the idea is
similar, and in principle K-3D cannot be distributed with this module
enabled without important consequences and modifications (it's more
complicate than I thought in the 1st reply). I just contacted the
(main) author of the K-3D software to know if we can do something about
this.
Note: I am the Debian maintainer for this package, and at the moment
Ubuntu imports directly the package into Ubuntu repositories, so maybe
I'm not completely right when interpreting some Ubuntu policies about
this matter.
Cheers.
