[vtkusers] Re: Installing and running vtk

[Karl G. Merkley]

The RedHat 7.0 rpms  README.txt seems to indicate that that set
of rpms only works with Mesa 3.4-10.  The Mesa libs installed on
my RH 7.1 box are 3.5-5.  Is this a known incompatibility?

I would really prefer not to downgrade an installed package if at all
possible!

    Thanks,
        Karl
