Yes, that's why I am on this list; I (try to) maintain vtk for Fink. 
There are currently 3 vtk-5.2 packages in Fink, with either X11 or 
Carbon or Cocoa graphics. For 10.4, however, only the X11 variant is 
available, because of the Python bindings : For the Carbon and Cocoa 
variants, I want to use the system Python, and Python-2.5, but on 10.4 
the system comes only with Python-2.3. They are therefore restricted to 
10.5. The X11 variant uses Fink's python-2.5 and is therefore available 
for both 10.4 and 10.5.

Since I am not really using vtk myself, I cannot judge how useful these 
Fink vtk packages are for a real vtk user. They build and work OK, 
however, as far as I can tell.
