Hi Simon, You do not need to modify the avt file or add the revision macro as that is not the problem you are currently facing. I would try reverting your avt file to its original content, adding all the files listed in the Files components="M" xml block to your SOURCES list, and adding the plugin build folder to your LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
Also would you be able to send me the contents of the vtkVisItReaderGFDL.cxx from your build directory and I will confirm the automatic wrapping is working properly.
