Re: Fwd: Ginkgo CADx XML-RPC support
Hola Carlos,
Sebastian made me aware of the fact that your latest release
includes support for an OsiriX compatible XML-RPC interface.
I must say this is a really brilliant move on your part and
quite an impressive achievement.
The download page
http://ginkgo-cadx.com/en/download/
says under "requirements for Linux" that "all these
libraries are installed by default on Ubuntu = 8.x".
Now, Healthcare providers can be rather conservative and
Debian/Testing strikes a nice balance between not being "to
old" (like Debian/Stable) and being fairly well tested but
still fresh. As such GNUmed has chosen to use Debian/Testing
as its reference platform (that means: we will fix any bugs
we can under any platform but we only "guarantee" smooth
operation under Debian/Testing - insofar as an Open Source
project can guarantee anything).
Therefore we have suggested to the Debian Med team to look
into packaging Ginkgo CADx for Debian. Debian Med is a
(longstanding, successful) project to inject medical
software into Debian. Their preliminary investigation lead
to the conclusion that some patches are required for some of
the library dependencies.

I wonder whether you might be able to spend a little time to
investigate this claim and perhaps work with us to map out a
plan how to smoothly get Ginkgo CADx into Debian ? I don't
really expect very many problems because Ubuntu is quite
closely based on Debian.
I have CCed the Debian Med mailing list...
Thanks so much for your help !
