Thanks for your advice! This is not something I found in the freeze policy, nor the FAQ, but given the effects, I must agree with you. I reverted my changes and will go for the removal of the libvtkDICOMPython*.so symlink from any vtk-dicom packages for the moment, since there haven't been much breakage with the dangling symlink anyway. It may not be entirely ideal, but there is no risk of regression this way. > This should be fixed for bookworm. > > I find it a bit curious that a -dev package depends on a python module, but > then again we seem to be dealing with something closely related to python > here. It's a bit curious for me too; double checking the source code and shared objects relations, I believe libvtkDICOMPython*.so only provides primitives for the Python module, which are not relevant for the C++ VTK DICOM libraries, so probably not for headers as well.
