Here's a better, less risky patch for vtk6. It requires a no-change rebuild of pcl though in order to properly work.

Matching subscriptions: Ubuntu 16.04 Bugs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1573234 Title: unable to link: cannot find libvtkproj4 Status in pcl package in Ubuntu: New Status in vtk6 package in Ubuntu: Fix Released Status in pcl source package in Xenial: Confirmed Status in vtk6 source package in Xenial: Confirmed Bug description: [Impact] * Any code that links to libraries provided by libpcl1.7 (which depends on vtk6) fails to link because it cannot find vtkproj4 (see https://github.com/PointCloudLibrary/pcl/issues/1594 for example) * This has been fixed in Debian, but in a way that breaks ABI * See this change through all the way by adding libproj-dev as a dependency to libvtk6-dev, and rebuild pcl such that it uses the system libproj instead of the vtk-vendored libproj * IMPORTANT: This fix is a two-patch fix, one for vtk6 (adding the missing dependency) and one for pcl (a no-change rebuild using the earlier patch for vtk6). As a result, they cannot be uploaded into -proposed at the same time. vtk6 must happen first, and pcl only once vtk6 has been built. [Test Case] * Build software that uses PCL (e.g. https://github.com/ros- perception/perception_pcl) and watch it fail * Apply this patch, build and install vtk6-dev, then rebuild PCL using it. Then watch your previous build failure succeed. [Where problems could occur] * This patch doesn't change ABI or API, but does add a dependency * Problems could potentially occur if clients worked around this issue by hacking their projects to link to vtkproj, but known users (ROS) have vendored Debian's fix into their repos as opposed to working around the bug, thus regressions seem unlikely To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/pcl/+bug/1573234/+subscriptions _______________________________________________ Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~group.of.nepali.translators Post to : group.of.nepali.translators@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~group.of.nepali.translators More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
