media-gfx description: "The media-gfx category contains graphics-related packages."
media-libs description: "The media-libs category contains media-related libraries."
media-gfx/opencsg DESCRIPTION: "The Constructive Solid Geometry rendering library"

So package seems firmly grounded in "graphics" world, fits the category.

Comment 2 Bernd 2020-08-11 15:39:34 UTC

I agree with Andreas, the package provides a graphics related package and thus fits well in media-gfx. This category does in my opinion not intend to only contain packages which are having executable files, but can also contain libraries.
Currently I see no reason to move the package to media-libs, and therefore closing the issue.

Feel free to reopen it, if you have other arguments for the move.
