I'm trying to build OverView from the ParaView 3.6.2 source on Mac OS
10.5.8 with a binary Qt 4.5.2 install. I am using CMake 2.6-4. I had
this working earlier on a different machine, but on a cleanly
installed system I get the following error:

Scanning dependencies of target QVTK

error: #error "VTK configured to use Carbon, but Qt configured to use

During configuration, if I uncheck the VTK_USE_CARBON flag, it is
automatically turned back on. If I check the VTK_USE_COCOA flag, it is
automatically turned back off. It isn't clear why this happens; even
with "Debug Output" set on, there is no output explaining this in
CMake's bottom panel.

Has anybody else seen this, or better yet, overcome it?

Thanks,

Zak
