Description Dominik 'Rathann' Mierzejewski 2015-08-06 21:51:53 UTC 
Description of problem:
vtk bundles several libraries:
* DICOMParser in Utilities/DICOMParser: upstream seems to be http://www.itk.org/Wiki/MetaIO/Documentation.
* kwsys in Utilities/KWSys: it's declared a copylib by upstream (kitware.com, same as vtk), but it should be a proper shared library, as it's much too large (though partial bundling is possible) and it seems to be bundled by all projects from kitware (http://public.kitware.com/gitweb?p=KWSys.git)
* MetaIO in Utilities/MetaIO - see http://www.itk.org/Wiki/MetaIO/Documentation and bug 1076793.
* some OpenGL headers in Utilities/ParseOGLExt/headers

This came up during the discussion of FPC ticket #555 (https://fedorahosted.org/fpc/ticket/555).
