Hi,

Sorry about the delay in repsonding.

I'm not currently actively working on visit; (I did some checks this week).

You can see my current work at: https://salsa.debian.org/science-team/visit/tree/debian/master

Basically, VisIt doesn't build against  VTK6 or VTK7 as in Debian at the moment. I had been waiting on changes to VTK

(There was a plan possibly to move to VTK8), but this has stalled;

(See https://www.mail-archive.com/search?l=debian-scie...@lists.debian.org&q=subject:%22Re%5C%3A+Skip+VTK7+and+go+directly+VTK8%5C%3F+Was%5C%3A+Re%5C%3A+vtk6+and+vtk7%22&o=newest&f=1)

It appears that work on VTK 7 / VTK8 has stalled due to lack of need for a new VTK8 from other users in Debian. If I get the time, I might investigate what needs to be done, but this is unlikely at the moment,

Regards

Alastair

Hi Alastair,

Are you still working on visit packaging for Debian? I'm very interested in
the package. However I fail myself to get it built at all from source...
