[vtk-developers] recent HDF5-related regression with installed file names...

[Sean McBride]

Robert,

Thanks for your reply.  I guess you mean this:

---------------
commit c76a183cb4bdfd255c60b006d84f82a259cd6de6
Merge: f0480df db8d3e2
Author: Dan Lipsa <dan.lipsa at kitware.com>
Date:   Sun Nov 23 16:49:15 2014 -0500

    Merge topic 'update-hdf5' into master
---------------

I'm trying the commit before it to verify.

Also, I retract my statement that in Release I get what I expect, even there the name is wrong, it's missing the "-6.2" at the end (that every other library file has).

If I rename them manually, I hit another problem, a link error:

duplicate symbol _H5MM_malloc
duplicate symbol _H5MM_calloc

My app links to another HDF5, and so I presume those two functions are not being mangled in vtk_libhdf5_mangle.h.

Sean
