Indeed, and there is a simple fix too, which has been uploaded to
experimental only so far:
https://salsa.debian.org/med-team/dcmtk/-/commit/42583dfe9fd344a63cdbc278268d4176d4a22ec4

Mathieu (or someone else from debian-med), could you please apply that
to unstable as well? It seems that with the current state of unstable
the transition will take a while anyways.

Worth pointing out that right now dcmtk cannot be built in sid/armel due
to a missing build depend, namely graphviz. It seems worth applying the
fix to unstable anyways so that it does not fall through the cracks, and
we can schedule a binNMU later when graphviz is available again.

Thanks!
