Hi Wookey -
Sorry about that! I don't use colors very often, but I sort of assume when I
do that they will work for most people.
The three changes I made were to directly set the values of VTKPATH,
VTKLIBPATH and VTKLIBS. The other changes were simply commenting out the
logic that attempts to set these variables by scanning the local system.
Your comment about a "smarter" build system is interesting. One of the things
I discovered while working on this problem is that cmake has a system for
finding libraries, and the vtk package for Fedora includes the necessary files
to implement this system.
I generated a diff file and attached it to this message.
