On new machine(s), I generally do:

$ sudo apt-get build-dep vtk

or

$ sudo apt-get build-dep vtk6

This will make sure to pull in any required dependencies in order to
build vtk (as is done by upstream debian/ubuntu). As said also, this
may not pull in hardware specific opengl implementation, you should be
able to change that anytime you want.
