Intro

A Debian package for slicer has been created to make it easier to install "3D Slicer" on Debian machines. This means users can simply do:

sudo apt-get install slicer

and the slicer3 command will be available in their path and system menus. All slicer executables and libraries will be installed along with dependencies.

Debian "squeeze"

Debian "squeeze" contains a "3D Slicer 3.4" package.

The next major Debian release "wheezy" will contain a "3D Slicer 3.6" package.

Ubuntu

The Ubuntu distribution will also contain a slicer package in their universe repository [1]. This package is probably based on the slicer package taken from Debian "unstable".

Thanks!

These packages were the result of a lot of work by Dominique Belhachemi.
