[Slackbuilds-users] VTK

[Luiz Carlos Ramos]

Hi all,

confirmed here. First trial gave the error mentioned in the first post,
but now, rebuilding the package without VTK installed, then worked
perfectly.

Options selected in both cases:

  export IMAGING=yes
  export MPI=yes
  export VIEWS=yes

I would second vote for including some remark in the README file, as
suggested above by a colleague.

Only my 2 cents,
