I have tried installing this package without success on a source build of sage 4.6 - (I can forward the full build log to the maintainer if required - and it seems maybe some opengl libraries or some linkage might be missing - the only package to fail is vtk itsellf - relevant extract of log below).
The experimental vtk_meta package is hopeless out of date! Have a look at: http://sage.math.washington.edu/home/jsp/SPKGS/ETS/ I didn't put much effort in maintaining lately, so you may be on your own. But I'm happy to answer questions. Cheers, Jaap
I can try and correct this but I am reluctant to try again as every time I attempt this lengthy build the sage system is hosed in that any attempt to use the notebook seems to indicate that the symbol __iteract__ has gone missing! I am obliged to reinstall (or rollback the entire sage tree) in order to get a working system again. Anyone with similar experiences, hints or tips to getting this installed cleanly would be much appreciated. ________________ ... -- Looking for glXGetProcAddressARB -- Looking for glXGetProcAddressARB - not found -- Looking for glXGetProcAddress -- Looking for glXGetProcAddress - not found -- Could not find extension loader.
