Okay, I will test this.

I guess I will leave it for now.

Okay.  BTW, I've seen that ITK is at version 4.2 in NeuroDebian, afaik 
ANTS will need 4.4 at least. Well, since we need  ANTS and ITK 4.5 on 
wheezy I will run builds over the weekend to see how this goes.

Well, I always thought everything that is not in the original tarball 
has to be provided as patches or in some other way through debian/. 
That's the only reason I choose this approach.

If you can give me a pointer how to add properly overlay over upstream 
code that doesn't require a patch in debian/ I'll happily add the data 
differently. It seems I figured out how I can point the test data 
download url to where ever I want it :)

I will ask about the copyright of the data.

Best
