I am still wondering what I should do about dcm_qa* submodules. I keep
thinking about making a dedicated package (dcm2niix-qa) shipping them.
Without that, I could of cause bring (merge) upstream git tree into your
packaging repo, with all the submodules, but that would "ruin" the clean
history it has now. I would not be able just to "rebase" my packaging
on top without a merge if I am to bring submodules.
Meanwhile, pushed my adjusted neurodebian packaging to
http://github.com/neurodebian/dcm2niix
debian branch, which AFAIK should be good to go as long as we figure
out dcm_qa* situation. Will do a full sweep of builds and if all is
good, upload to NeuroDebian interim
