Package: libvtk5-dev
Version: 5.0.4-1.1
Severity: normal


when linking to libvtkIO.so, cmake is pulling the dependencies from libvtkIO.so 
into the link line. this is not a nice behavior when doing shared libs linking.
Instead the interface of the library should be changed. See:

http://www.vtk.org/Bug/view.php?id=3490
and
http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/cmake/2008-November/025584.html

Basically libvtkIO should be created with:

SET_PROPERTY( TARGET vtkIO PROPERTY LINK_INTERFACE_LIBRARIES "" )


so that none of the libjpeg.so or libtiff.so symlinks need to be present for 
package depending on vtk.

Thank you !
