[Debian-med-packaging] Any chance to only partly disable tests for camitk (Re: r16503 - in trunk/packages/camitk/trunk/debian: . patches)

Thanks, I will check this, but I think it is more due to a badly 
defined test.

for this it says

In fact, my mistake, lintian does not complain anymore about the 
Standards-Version (it is set to 3.9.5 in the package).
There was a problem with the date format though.

And therefore I would say that the package is ready to upload, so green 
light!
Thanks in advance for the sponsoring!
