[CentOS][RedHat][Anaconda] Installing via conversion of precompiled .deb file fails

[prerakmody]

Hi, I have a CentOS (RedHat) system in our academic environment, and hence I tried converting the precompiled .deb binary to a .rpm. But unfortunately it does not work. After following these steps, I get the error

ImportError: libijg8.so.14: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

Thoughts

• I think the file is some JPEG compression util as mentioned here -> https://ijg.org/
• It is also referenced in the multiresolutionimageinterface code here

My guess would be that you are missing the DCMTK package.

Hi, Since the conversion from .deb to .rpm was anyways a hacky process, I attempted to install ASAP via the regular build process. I've documented my journey here as a non-root user of a CentOS system installing ASAP (with anaconda python binding to multiresolutionimageinterface).

Is it possible if we can update ASAPs README.md file to better detail the installation process? I did take me quite some time to figure it out, and maybe future users can benefit from detailed steps to reduce barrier of entry (especially for students). I came here through the CAMELYON grand challenge, and I'm assuming many more might follow.

I have also noticed that many comments in the Issues section are quite repetitive, so a detailed README could maybe help? I'm just not sure how actively is this package being developed (or used) with the research labs of the maintainers.
