Package: src:pillow Severity: wishlist Dear maintainer,
According to the upstream documentation [1], Pillow should have read support for JPEG 2000 via OpenJPEG v2. This format is used quite heavily in medical software (via the DICOM format), so it would be really nice to provide a JPEG2000 enabled version of Pillow for this community. [1] https://pillow.readthedocs.io/en/5.2.x/handbook/image-file-formats.html#jpeg-2000 ``` To enable JPEG 2000 support, you need to build and install the OpenJPEG library, version 2.0.0 or higher, before building the Python Imaging Library. ``` I suppose it should be as straightforward as adding `libopenjp2-7-dev` in Build-depends, and verifying that `setup.py` detects it properly?
