[vtkusers] Installation

[Gavin Tabor]

Dear All,

I've managed to correctly compile VTK4 to produce a static library (.a) 
which seems to work fine. I wanted to change this to produce a shared 
object library, so I reran cmake -i, and then make'd the result. What I 
got was the following error message :

cmake.depends is up-to-date
rm -f libvtkzlib.so
/usr/local/bin/g++  -shared -fPIC -shared -nostdlib -fPIC -g -O2 -o 
/space/VTK/bin/libvtkzlib.so  adler32.o gzio.o inftrees.o uncompr.o

-Wl,-R,/space/VTK/bin/

<unknown>                           0xea0     	infblock.o

... a lot of similar message, then

.umul                               0x350     	trees.o
.umul                               0x458     	trees.o

make[3]: *** [default_target_zlib] Error 2
make[2]: *** [default_target] Error 2
make[1]: *** [default_target_Utilities] Error 2
make: *** [default_target] Error 2

I think this is to do with not setting the correct flags under cmake. 
Can someone tell me what I need to set for this? I am using gcc/g++ 
under solaris.

My thanks for any help.

Gavin
