[vtkusers] Trouble Installing VTK on Mac OS X 10.7.2 Lion

Fri Mar 30 01:20:32 EDT 2012

Both PYTHONPATH and DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH are empty strings. But in the Python interpreter, running:

import sys
print sys.path

gives this:

['', '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7', '/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.7/lib/python2.7/site-packages', ... '/Library/Python/2.7/site-packages/VTK-5.8.0-py2.7.egg, ...]

As for running the vtkpython executable, it too crashes:

dyld: Library not loaded: libvtksys.5.8.dylib
  Referenced from: /usr/local/bin/vtkpython
  Reason: image not found
[1]    27318 trace trap  vtkpython

libvtksys.5.8.dylib is located in /usr/local/lib/vtk-5.8. I wonder if that is part of the problem?
