The set of ctn, ctsim and dicomnifti is closed, so we could "just"
remove the three. Alternatively someone could fix the package to not
need / contain the file (note that I've not looked at the
feasibility of that).
It is in fact very easy to drop the file in question which is not used
in ctn 3.2.0 any more.  We did so in Jessie.  However, I personally do
not want to do the possibly needed backporting and I have no problems to
remove these three packages from stable considering that they are really
low popcon packages and users could cherry pick from testing if they
really need the package.  I keep Neurodebian team in CC since they might
have a different release strategy.  Feel free to do whatever does not
create any work for me. ;-)
I must admit I'm not sure whether the follow-ups to this from Valerio
were in relation to the stable removal or not.

In any case, we're now less than a week away from a point release so
unless anyone yells to the contrary very soon I'm minded to remove all
three packages from wheezy as per Andreas's mail.

Regards,

Adam


Will dinifti be removed from the distribution ? Do you need me to do something ? Removing the dependency from the ctn library is no small job.
