David Gobbi recently pointed me at a handy script included in the VTK
source. You can run it on your files/directories an it will try to
determine which modules you need besed on the headers you include.

Running it on just those three headers, I get:

estan at newton:~/orexplore/VTK$ cat test.cpp
#include <vtkButterflySubdivisionFilter.h>
#include <vtkLoopSubdivisionFilter.h>
#include <vtkLinearSubdivisionFilter.h>
estan at newton:~/orexplore/VTK$ Utilities/Maintenance/WhatModulesVTK.py .
test.cpp
Modules and their dependencies:
find_package(VTK COMPONENTS
  vtkCommonComputationalGeometry
  vtkCommonCore
  vtkCommonDataModel
  vtkCommonExecutionModel
  vtkCommonMath
  vtkCommonMisc
  vtkCommonSystem
  vtkCommonTransforms
  vtkFiltersCore
  vtkFiltersGeneral
  vtkFiltersModeling
  vtkFiltersSources
  vtkkwiml
)
Your application code includes 13 of 189 vtk modules.

All modules referenced in the files:
find_package(VTK COMPONENTS
  vtkFiltersModeling
)
Your application code includes 1 of 189 vtk modules.

Minimal set of modules:
find_package(VTK COMPONENTS
  vtkFiltersModeling
)
Your application code includes 1 of 189 vtk modules.


estan at newton:~/orexplore/VTK$

I don't know why you don't have the vtkFiltersModeling module, but it would
help to see your CMakeLists.txt and CMake output I think.
