same here. And people should really understand that GDCM 1.x is not
actively maintained. Jean Pierre any comments on that ?

That would really help me ! I have a very limited access to platform
(Linux based only). And having a couple of Win/Mac machine using a
system installed GDCM would really help.

GDCM 2.x Config.cmake files can be used from an install tree of a
build tree. Therefore setting up an ITK dashboard with GDCM 2.x only
require running the dashboard in the right order: first build GDCM 2.x
(trunk) then compile ITK against this build tree of GDCM 2.x.

Let me know if I can be of any help,

Thanks,
