Hi Roelof, this sounds pretty interesting. Since I see some scientific application I added limereg-dev (assuming that the development library will be named that way) to Debian Science imaging and Debian Med imaging-dev tasks.
I wonder whether it might make sense to maintain the package inside the Debian Science team or alternatively the Debian Phototools team (both teams in CC) Kind regards and thanks for this interesting ITP Andreas.
