[vtkusers] Failing VTK 6.1.1 build with Tk/Python on OSX 10.9.4

[Jens]

Hi David,

Many thanks for the quick and very helpful reply. As you suspected there
was a mismatch between the tcl/tk headers. The headers were coming from:

/usr/local/include

and the libraries from:

/Applications/Xcode.app/Contents/Developer/Platforms/MacOSX.platform/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.9.sdk/System/Library/Frameworks/tcl.framework

I've pointed both at the /Applications/... directories and the build has
now got beyond that point, so thanks again for your help.

Would that be considered a bug in cmake, or just bad luck on my part?

I hadn't knowingly installed anything tk/tcl related on my machine (it's a
new macbook air and I've not loaded much software at all onto it), so I've
no idea where the stuff in /usr/local came from.

However, if cmake had found the include files in /usr/local, shouldn't it
also have used the related libraries in /usr/local?

Best wishes,

Jens
