What is very strange. If I write the generated mesh into a file, and read it back the test works. `address sanitizer` does not report anything and `CGAL::is_valid_polygon_mesh()` does not...

Current documentation issue: The function `closest_point_location_and_primitive()` requires an initialization of the hint. The way `AABB_tree::Point_location` is documented does not imposed anything on the return type of `AABBTraits::Closest_point` (for the second...

Code issue `closest_point_and_primitive()` uses a construction for getting the closest primitive in the traversal traits. If we want to guarantee that the primitive returned is the closest with a kernel...

Code issue: The functor `Construct_projected_point_and_location_3` is a construction and require a kernel with exact constructions. It is used in the `AABB_tree` in the function `closest_point_location_and_primitive()` when using a CGAL Kernel,...

The purpose of the PR was to have a function to also get the location of the closest point but there are some problems that I listed above. The only...

There is nothing new, I wrote a pretty complete summary of the situation but got no reaction.

More information on the issue: The package version is `libvtk9-dev is (9.1.0+really9.1.0+dfsg2-7.1build3).` I locally have `libvtk9-dev is (9.1.0+really9.1.0+dfsg2-5)` and don't have any issue. The error happens in `BGL/test/BGL/test_bgl_read_write.cpp:788` while reading...

The problem seems to come from libexpat1-dev. The vtk package on ubuntu was built with libexpat1-dev 2.6.1 while my system version is 2.5 (guessed from [this thread](https://discourse.paraview.org/t/i-cannot-read-a-vtp-file-i-could-open-yesterday-can-someone-try-to-open-it/13938/11))

Should be "fixed" by https://github.com/CGAL/cgal-testsuite-dockerfiles/pull/163

Successfully tested in CGAL-6.0.1-Ic-345
