[Debian-med-packaging] Bug#943677: please package insighttoolkit5 (5.0 and 5.1 beta 1 are out)

[Gert Wollny]

Since I'm no longer working on anything related to image processing
that would require ITK (or its dependent packages) I'm not very
dedicated to package this, especially since packaging ITK really needs
a lot of work an time. 

Especially the python bindings are a nuisance, it is quite difficult to
get them to pass the tests reliably, and they increase the build time
quite *a lot*. So if we agree to drop these I might give it a shot. I
would package this as a all new package insighttoolkit5, to not
interfere with what is currently build against insighttoolkit4 (need to
disable one rather useless python test in 4.13.1 to get it pass). 

Best, 
Gert
