Since you have tcl8.4 in there, I presume you are building in a
debian sid environment.

I have a preliminary vtk-4.2.2 built in my sid chroot. I have not
fully incorporated the Gavin Baker features of cmake into the vtk
build. (I had been hoping they would make a Woody backport easier,
too. But it may be best to give up on that goal with the desired
schedule for Sarge release.)

I also want to fix bug #199907 with the next upload, in addition to
the Python2.3 migration. Any clues on that can be sent my way.

Do any Java types want to work on building VTK's Java support?
