RcppCGAL 5.6.0

Changes in 5.6.0

Major updates

• Snafu due to me being busy and not responding to requests for update from CRAN. Package was archived.
• Update to fix an issue in a dependent package caused my simple checking function replacing a non-standard library exit function in the CGAL header files (Issue #11). User tylermorganwall found bug and fixed. Thank you!
• Package now is bundled with a fixed version (5.6.0) of CGAL header files
• Will download from CGAL release 5.6.0 if those files are somehow missing
• User can supply own head files via CGAL_DIR as before
• Whether a user supplies their own header files is now no longer recorded due to CRAN objection and them not reading response emails.
• Deprecating the cgal_install() function. Had planned to give an error via lifecycle package; however, CRAN maintainers are not reading their emails and assume the function is still working. Previously, planned to soft deprecate but CRAN objected.
• Removed dependency on gh package

New features

• added a set_cgal function (and unset_cgal()) to help users who may have trouble setting the environmental variables on their own.
