Hello science team! After discussion with Jochen and Andreas, I'm working on removing the old vtk7 package from the archive, or at least do not build-depends on it. The rationale is that vtk7 is old and not maintained upstream anymore. The current version is vtk9. Unfortunately, many packages are not ready for the migration because the way VTK works changed between version 8 and 9, especially on the CMake side. So I've started to update reverse build-depends of libvtk7-dev: cgal- demo [1], mia [2], nifti2dicom [3], openems [4]... I've discovered that similar initiatives are ongoing [5]. I think that synchronization is needed to avoid duplicate work. There is still a lot to do, like camitk, gdcm, vtk-dicom, facet- analyser, so any contribution is welcome!
