[vtkusers] Bug (?): /usr/lib/vtk-5.0/vtkCommonKit.cmake contains wrong elements

[Michail Vidiassov]

Dear All,

I have encountered (Mac OS X 10.5, vtk 5.0.3) the problem, that
is similar to the one described in the following bug report

http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=388736

The file /usr/lib/vtk-5.0/vtkCommonKit.cmake contains the setting of
VTK_COMMON_CLASSES; the last elements of this list look like
   "/debian/stage/vtk-5.0.1/Build/Common/vtkTypeInt8Array"
instead of
   "vtkTypeInt8Array"

What is the proper solution?
Debian packagers use the attached patch
(http://ftp.de.debian.org/debian/pool/main/v/vtk/vtk_5.0.3-1.diff.gz),
but since their fix did not find its way into VTK in a year,
I suspect that there is something wrong about it
(but I am only guessing, since I know nothing
  about the authour/packager relations in VTK domain).


      Sincerely, Michail
