[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#638692: gdcm: FTBFS: make[3]: *** No rule to make target `/usr/lib/libpng.so', needed by `bin/libvtkgdcm.so.2.0.17'. Stop.

[Niels Thykier]

Package: gdcm
Version: 2.0.17-3.1
Severity: serious
Justification: fails to build from source

Hi,

The package FTBFS, presumably because libpng has been multi-arched and this
package makes assumptions about the exact install location of libpng.
