[vtk-developers] Dashboard hasn't shown "diff" images since CMake 2.8

[David Cole]

I bet if you get rid of the other error log spew that the problem "goes
away"...

But still, something in ctest must have changed to trigger this.

I don't have time to investigate quickly and immediately, but please log a
bug and somebody will get to it, hopefully in time for the *next* cmake
release. (Not the impending 2.8.3 release, but the next one...)


Thanks,
David C.
