[vtk-developers] TestMathTextFreeTypeTextRenderer depends on matplotlib?

[Kathleen S. Biagas]

Looks like my error.  I forgot to add VTK_DATA_ROOT to the build, so I
guess I was getting erroneous 'pass'.

And no, matplotlib is not installed.

I guess I will only worry about the NoMath version for now,

Thanks, and sorry for the unnecessary email.
