Thanks ! I'll update my other packages, I keep spreading this mistake
over and over.

Updated. Basically the build system would try to retrieve the latest
version of cableswig from the CVS.
Since cableswig is going to be deprecated in ITKv4 (and because
cableswig does not provide library), one has to download cableswig
locally to build mummy (statically linked).

ActiViz.NET is quite old. It has been around for years, but it has
been open-sourced only a few weeks ago. I really hope they'll polish
the website as they did already for
VTK,ITK,paraview,cmake,cdash,batchmake,gccxml,igstk,vtkedge...

This should be all fixed now.

Thanks again,
