Good to know.
OTB won't support ITK5 for quite a while, though:
https://gitlab.orfeo-toolbox.org/orfeotoolbox/otb/-/merge_requests/528
Removing itk4 will be difficult with rdeps still depending on it.
There is no RM bug for insighttoolkit4 yet,
Steve simply bumped the version right in d/changelog[1]
How does the insighttoolkit5 package in unstable cause the removal of
insighttoolkit4?
when you file one feel free to
file one for otb as well and have it block the one for itk4, but please CC
pkg-grass-de...@lists.alioth.debian.org when you do.
IMHO it would be sad to loose OTB. When I once started looking at the
packaging upstream was quite responsive. Did you discussed the issue?
I did, see the comments in the MR linked above. OTB 9 should support
ITK5, but is not expected until the end of the year.
Kind Regards,
Bas
