Dear all, I am currently packaging a computer vision software[1] which test suite requires external data (images). Considering the weight of the images (~75Mb) compared to the package size (a few Mb) they decided to distribute them separately.
Right now, 30% of the tests are failing due to the lack of this dataset. Following a remark on another thread[2], I would like to get your opinion about the best course of action regarding this matter. Should I repack the software after including this dataset? Is the voluminous size a problem? Another option would be to skip the tests which are requiring this dataset. Note: the dataset is mainly composed of video sequences stored as pgm images.
