[vtkusers] VTK 4.0 on SGI IRIX

[Boyd Merworth]

Hello,

I have been attempting to build VTK 4.0 for use with Python 2.2.1.  I have
built both the VTK and Python software and have them installed under
the SGI IRIX operating system.  I am not a Python or VTK user but was
asked to build and install the software on a system I administer.

When executing the Cone.py file:

.....src/VTK4.0/VTK/Examples/Tutorial/Step1/Python/Cone.py

I get this error message:

milagros-> ./Cone.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./Cone.py", line 9, in ?
    from vtkpython import *
  File "/home/utexas/staff/merworth/src/VTK4.0/VTK/Wrapping/Python/vtkpython.py", line 29, in ?
    exec "from "+kit_name+" import *"
  File "<string>", line 1, in ?
ImportError: 649254:python: rld: Fatal Error: unresolvable symbol in /lusr/lib/vtk/libvtkFilteringPython.so: FindClosestNPoints__17vtkPointLocator2DGifT2P9vtkIdList

I have PYTHONPATH set to:


PYTHONPATH=/usr/local/lib/python2.2/site-packages/wxPython:/home/utexas/staff/merworth/src/VTK4.0/VTK/Wrapping/Python:/lusr/lib/vtk:/lusr/lib/python2.2

I would appreciate any pointers/help I can get in tracking down my problem.

Thanks,
