[vtkusers] Problem installing latest VTK snapshot - missing header file

Hi,

I downloaded this morning the recent VTK snapshot from the git web interface an tried to build/install it.
I used the graphical cmake GUI, version 2.8.4. The only change I did in the configuration was to additionally select BUILD_EXAMPLES and BUILD_SHARED_LIBS. I use MS Visual Studio 2008 64bit on a 64bit Windows system.

Configuration/Generation went smooth as usual. Also Building the binaries (target ALL_BUILD with setting RelWithDebInfo) works fine.
The problem shows when building the target INSTALL; it complains about a missing file /Utilities/metaIOConfig.h, giving in the error message also some stack trace (which seems to make sense).
Now I checked the directory /Utilities, where the file is supposed to be, and there is only a file metaIOConfig.h.in.

I am quite unfamiliar with the details of the cmake generation procedure, but this feels to me like a missing step in the source tree generation. Did I do something wrong or missed something (I followed the same procedure - as outlined above - several times before without any trouble ever), or is something broken in the cmake configuration ? I searched the archives a bit, but could not find anything helpful...

Daniel
