Because the debian package only target debian system and thus gcc compiler. I think you can follow the trick I provided in the cmake bug tracker: http://cmake.org/Bug/view.php?id=8246 However this is not very smart to deactivate builtins for the entire project. The ideal solution would be to patch cmake to pass -fno-builtins *only* when doing the checkfunctions exists. [I wish I knew how autoconf people handled this case]. Does anyone knows if AC_CHECK_FUNC handle this particular case ? > It's great that you're taking an interest in packaging GDCM. I am trying to learn from this particular package. Hopefully I'll be able to provide the following: pvrg, jpegls, dicom3tools, dcmtk-snapshot once I get more confident with the process. > I'm a little confused by a couple of recent changelog entries, > however.

That's a mistake, I was using dch -i as I read on some random website and I guess it adds unwanted lines...
