Bug Description

Binary package hint: aeskulap

In Hardy, I tried both aeskulap_0.2.2b1-1_i386.deb, and aeskulap_0.2.2b1-2_i386.deb with a libcairomm upgrade. Neither worked.

Open aeskulap. Select "File-Open". Open a directory of DICOM files. Nothing is shown. Select "Any files" to see DICOM files. Double click on a file. A "Scanning Files" window opens. After a long wait, a viewing window opens. No image can be seen. Select "Study Manager". No patient data is displayed.

Also, select "File-DicomDir". Open a dircectory with a DICOMDIR file. Nothing is shown.

This is, effectively, a package that "does nothing".

If you need a DICOM viewer "right now", try loading Sun Java and using "DicomBrowser-1.3.jar".

It's sees that the directory access is still bugged. However, I found an easy fix until they bring the Beta fix out. make sure you have freej & imagej installed. then open the images directory in nautilus & right click, open with, use specific command- aeskulap . This will allow you to view each individually. Please keep in mind that I have only tested this with McKee & Banner images. Jay

See bug 229681 for a work-around for Hardy (and probably newer releases as well).

Short version, the problem is a missing dependency in the package, to fix just install the dcmtk too.
$ sudo aptitude install aeskulap dcmtk
