[vtkusers] problems installing shared libraries on OSX

[Garry Willgoose]

I'm trying to make the shared libraries for use with Python on OSX  
10.4.10 with Xcode 2.3. The cmake window is

BUILD_EXAMPLES                   ON
BUILD_SHARED_LIBS                ON
CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY    2.4
CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX             /usr/local
CMAKE_OSX_ARCHITECTURES          i386
CMAKE_OSX_SYSROOT                /Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk
PYTHON_DEBUG_LIBRARY             -framework Python
PYTHON_INCLUDE_PATH              /Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/ 
Headers
PYTHON_LIBRARY                   -framework Python
VTK_APPLE_RESOURCE               /Developer/Tools/Rez
VTK_DATA_ROOT                    VTK_DATA_ROOT-NOTFOUND
VTK_USE_CARBON                   ON
VTK_USE_COCOA                    OFF
VTK_USE_MPEG2_ENCODER            OFF
VTK_USE_PARALLEL                 OFF
VTK_USE_RENDERING                ON
VTK_USE_RPATH                    OFF
VTK_WRAP_JAVA                    OFF
VTK_WRAP_PYTHON                  ON
VTK_WRAP_TCL                     OFF

The make appears to be OK right up to near the end when I get the  
following error

Linking CXX executable ../../../bin/GraphicsCxxTests
[ 99%] Built target GraphicsCxxTests
[ 99%] Converting Tcl test
Converting /Users/garrywillgoose/VTK-5/Graphics/Testing/Tcl/ 
capSphere.tcl

make[2]: *** [Graphics/Testing/Python/conversion_complete] Error 1
make[1]: *** [Graphics/Testing/Python/CMakeFiles/ 
GraphicsPythonTests.dir/all] Error 2
make: *** [all] Error 2


On a perhaps related issue if I change so it uses COCOA and not  
CARBON (I thought I'd try that because I thought Carbon wasn't  
supported on Intel) I get the cmake error

CMake Error: Error in cmake code at
/Users/garrywillgoose/VTK-5/Utilities/TclTk/internals/CMakeLists.txt:2:
Unknown CMake command "VTK_GET_TCL_TK_VERSION".



I assume both errors are related because they both appear to be  
preparing Tcl/Tk interfaces even though I have not requested Tcl/Tk  
wrappers. The prior mention of Tcl code in the make is compiling  
vtkTclTest2Py. As an aside I have Tcl/Tk 8.4.13 installed because I  
do some occasional stuff with it ... but I didn't request Tcl/Tk  
wrappers in cmake.

BTW A non shared/no python wrappers make generates the 2nd error.
