Hi,

I don't know what is your opinion, but perhaps the best solution would be to make a fork of SAGA within QGIS, so could standardize >the version for all platforms and for all users. Otherwise it is impossible to create multiplatform Processing Models... Since QGIS >has this quick releases cycle, it was a question of updating SAGA to the latest version, in each new QGIS version.

In my case (Ubuntu 12.04), SAGA tools does not appear, because I have SAGA 2.1.1 installed from ubuntugis-unstable, which is no >longer supported in QGIS Master:

https://github.com/qgis/QGIS/commit/b0291985ac16a1f2809979257ffc12d84004e897

supportedVersions = {"2.1.2": ("2.1.2", SagaAlgorithm212),
                                "2.1.3": ("2.1.3", SagaAlgorithm213),
                                "2.1.4": ("2.1.3", SagaAlgorithm214)}

This way will emerge a problem, since in ubuntugis-unstable, SAGA has only been updated for versions of Ubuntu 14.XX (the rest have >2.1.1 or earlier). When QGIS 2.8 will be released, it will arise many complaints because the SAGA disappears. I'm pretty sure that >most users of ubuntu-like-systems use ubuntugis-unstable to install these packages and dependencie

What do you think?

I as a user have a lot of trouble with SAGA every while end then, especially like you mentioned with models I built to run on Win and Linux Mint/Ubuntu. Even though I have an updated Linux Mint 17.1 = Ubuntu 14.04 with ubuntu-unstable, SAGA only works partially. Seems like most vector related function still work, but all raster related functions fail, so my models are working only under Windows now.

There might be other reasons for that than only SAGA, but for the average Linux user, this is hard to solve. So any ideas how to make the integration of SAGA more stable would be much appreciated.

Just my 2 cents
Bernd






Thank you very much!

Best regards,
