state of VTK-8 (upgrading paraview)?



Hi Gert and other VTK keepers,

what's the state of VTK-8 for Debian?

The reason I ask is that I need a newer version of paraview to view complex XDMF mesh data. I tried building the new paraview versions (5.5, 5.6), but the amount of VTK patching required (to build against vtk6 or vtk7) is impossibly large, with new definitions of VTK via cmake modules etc. (VTK source is no longer provided in the paraview source tarball). Given the timelines I presume these paraview versions were released against VTK-8 and so will build more easily against VTK-8.

help needed!

Drew
