no need to complicate things now, if there's a use case for others then
things can be rearranged later (which might look different to multi
packages anyway)

comments inline, new tar attached. this is broadly ok but it needs
checking with godot4 and kicad which have bundled copies to see
whether they pick it up if installed.

last few sentences are just noise for DESCR

: COMMENT =	cutting-edge 3D printing slicer software

wrong comment

: CATEGORIES =	cad devel

no point listing devel

maths and/or graphics might make sense but i think just cad is enough

: # Used by cad/openscad so match COMPILER

needed for itself too really, but that's hidden because your version
only built static libs. I switched to shared in mine.

: #BUILD_DEPENDS =	devel/gtest
..
: # I had trouble getting gtest to link
: #CONFIGURE_ARGS =	-DUSE_EXTERNAL_GTEST=ON
: CONFIGURE_ARGS =	-DCLIPPER2_TESTS=OFF

I didn't try before changing from static libs, but this works ok
for me with shared libs
