[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#628168: libdcmtk2-dev: OFFIS_DCMTK_VERSION_NUMBER is no longer a number

[Michael Hanke]

Package: libdcmtk2-dev
Version: 3.6.0-5
Severity: normal

Hi,

with dcmtk 3.6 the macro OFFIS_DCMTK_VERSION_NUMBER is no longer a
number. It used to be one (dcmtk 3.5) and it was possible to do versions checks
with it, e.g.

#if OFFIS_DCMTK_VERSION_NUMBER > 352

Now it is a string and that results in e.g.:

fileio_dicom.cpp:68:5: error: token ""360"" is not valid in preprocessor expressions

I assume this was an unintentional change, given the presence of both
DCMTK_PACKAGE_VERSION _and_ DCMTK_PACKAGE_VERSION_NUMBER, where the
latter clearly want to be a number and not a string.

Thanks,

Michael
