[vtk-developers] VTK6 and Examples

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

Guys,

It may be worthwhile to note that VTK examples doesn't built with
ParaView. ParaView doesn't enable all modules needed for VTK examples.
I'm disabling building of VTKexamples for ParaView for now, but
someone needs to address that at some point.
