At least Debian and I guess some of its derivates already do that for some time now (see Debian libdcmtk package)
- Category set to Library
- Priority changed from Low to Normal
- Module changed from all to dcmjpls, config
- Target version set to 3.6.6
The implementation strategy for DCMTK decided by the team will be to keep the internal CharLS version available in DCMTK (for platforms where CharLS is not available as an external library or compilers that do not support C++11/C++14) but provide an option to compile DCMTK either with the internal or with an external CharLS library. For the external CharLS library, we will primarily aim at supporting CharLS 2.x. This does require several modification of the build system, though, and these will only be implemented after DCMTK 3.6.5.
- Target version deleted (
3.6.6)
