Alright. Let's hope the VTK folks have had co-installability in mind then.

I see, no problem. As for myself, apart from also being quite busy with a
product launch at work, I've never done any Debian packaging, so I'm
probably ill-suited to take on such a complex set of packages :/

But let's hope someone else is up for the task, should it turn out that
co-installability is not a problem.

Thanks,
Elvis
