That's something I misunderstood also myself. I thought I was supposed

need to provide a copyright for the original source code.
Since gdcm builds on Win32 system a couple of copyright (BSD
compatible) are needed:
* a C99 replacement for stdint.h
* getopt
Those files are not installed on *nix system.
Ahh, OK, this makes sense. If there would be an *additional* reason
to rebuild the source package (saving considerable amount of size, removing
unneded binaries whatever - I havn't checked the file) I would probably
consider repackaging the source tarball in a get-orig-source target.
So we might be able to get rid of things which are just a burden to
maintain the copyright file. But that's perfectly up to you as the
maintainer - just a hint.
Very big thank to Steve for his tremendous work on the gdcm package,
thank you very *very* much !
Thank you both!
Kind regards
Andreas.
