Description

Hello, `pyregion` installs a file `geom.h`. This file is not used, as far as I can see, anywhere in the code. The code in the file seems invalid, starting with "inlcude". Can this file be safely removed?

Research direction

Start by inspecting pyregion/geom.h and searching the repository and packaging configuration for references to the file. Confirm that it is unused and that removing it does not break installation; done means the file is no longer shipped and the package still installs successfully.
