[Ctk-developers] DCMTK_DIR is found incorrectly

Hi Csaba, Jc -

London calling (always wanted to say that).  We talked over the issue a bit
and didn't see any obvious issues but there was a request from some folks
for a further discussion of the underlying issue so we put it on the agenda
for a Tuesday afternoon (15:00 London time) hangout.  Does that work for
you two?

Most of the work here this week so far is on CLI, XNAT/REST API, and DICOM.
