Hi all,
I uploaded 3.0.0 to debian. I need the following patch to get
imagevis3d to compile:
http://anonscm.debian.org/viewvc/debian-med/trunk/packages/imagevis3d/trunk/debian/patches/fixcomp.patch?view=markup
As a side note, compilation fails on FreeBSD based kernel:
https://buildd.debian.org/status/package.php?p=imagevis3d
