Re: should google-glog be ok with libunwind7-dev? [Was: Orthanc 0.7.2 backport of wheezy]

[Yaroslav Halchenko <yoh@debian.org>]

Thanks to Daigo's -2 of glog with suggested tune up of build-depends,
I have uploaded backport build of orthanc for wheezy straight into
NeuroDebian wheezy just to give it a try...

initial catch was the re-located *.dic files provided by libdcmtk2
(under /usr/share/dcmtk in wheezy and /usr/share/libdcmtk2/ in sid now):
orthanc silently failed to start.  log msgs just finished with log lines
stating that it was "Loading the external DICOM dictionary" without any
failure/error msg following.

Sebastien, do you think could you make discovery of the path 'automagic'
thus avoiding necessity to patch for the path?  probably the best it
could be achieved through  cmake's find_file looking under common
suspect paths (/usr/share/dcmtk /usr/share/libdcmtk2) if
DCMTK_DICTIONARY_DIR was not specified (and thus avoiding its hard-coded
specification in debian/rules)?

Cheers!
