Hi Olly - That sounds a bit like the roads around here! They are well known for having a patch on top of a patch on top of a patch.
I took a stab at changing the loch Makefile manually. It still fails, but now it has yet another message. Here is the last few bits from the compile run. ================== gcc -c -Wall -D_GNU_SOURCE -DLOCH -DLXLINUX -I/usr/lib64/wx/include/gtk2- unicode-release-2.8 -I/usr/include/wx-2.8 -D_FILE_OFFSET_BITS=64 - D_LARGE_FILES -D__WXGTK__ -pthread -o .././loch/img.o img.c c++ -o .././loch/loch -Wall .././loch/lxR2P.o .././loch/lxTR.o .././loch/lxOGLFT.o .././loch/lxSetup.o .././loch/lxRender.o .././loch/lxWX.o .././loch/lxImgIO.o .././loch/lxLRUD.o .././loch/lxFile.o .././loch/lxSTree.o .././loch/lxData.o .././loch/lxMath.o .././loch/lxSView.o .././loch/lxSScene.o .././loch/lxGUI.o .././loch/lxGLC.o .././loch/lxOptDlg.o .././loch/lxAboutDlg.o .././loch/img.o -lwx_gtk2u_gl-2.8 -pthread -Wl,-z,relro -lwx_gtk2u_richtext-2.8 -lwx_gtk2u_aui-2.8 -lwx_gtk2u_xrc-2.8 - lwx_gtk2u_qa-2.8 -lwx_gtk2u_html-2.8 -lwx_gtk2u_adv-2.8 -lwx_gtk2u_core-2.8 - lwx_baseu_xml-2.8 -lwx_baseu_net-2.8 -lwx_baseu-2.8 -L/usr/lib/vtk-5.4 - lvtkCommonExecutionModel-6.1 -lvtkCommonDataModel-6.1 -lvtkCommonCore-6.1 - lvtkFiltersCore-6.1 -lvtkFiltersHybrid-6.1 -lvtkIOLegacy-6.1 -lfreetype -lGLU -lpthread -lz -s /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lvtkCommonExecutionModel-6.1 /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lvtkCommonDataModel-6.1 /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lvtkCommonCore-6.1 /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lvtkFiltersCore-6.1 /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lvtkFiltersHybrid-6.1 /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lvtkIOLegacy-6.1 collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status make[1]: *** [.././loch/loch] Error 1 make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/bgee/Installs/therion/loch' make: *** [loch/loch] Error 2 ====================== I noticed a section at the top of the Loch Makefile where it is using some tcl programs to find where vtk is installed. This starts on line 14. On my systems the three tcl programs return data as if vtk 5.4 were installed. The system has no trace of vtk 5.4 left on it. The two directories returned for VTKPATH and VTKLIBPATH do not exist. Will this cause any problems?
