[vtkusers] Building VTK from a CVS checkout on Suse 10.1

[Jens Thomas]

Hi,

I'm trying to build VTK from a CVS checkout on a Suse 10.1 system
running a pentium processor and am building the Python and Tcl wrappings
and doing an out-of-source build.

The build is currently failing because it can't find the file
vtkConfigure.h as shown below:

This file is sat in the build directory (i.e the directory I'm running
make from), but isn't being found because the current directory (i.e.
".") isn't included in the -I flags. The directory above ("..") is,
although there is nothing of interest in that directory.

I can get the build to work by including -I. in the build line, but I
can't work out which file I need to edit to make sure this is included
for all files.

Does anyone know which file I need to edit, or why the wrong directory
is being included?

I've attached my CMakeCache.txt in case it sheds any light on what I may
have done wrong.

Best wishes,

Jens
