Bug#88027: ITP: vtk -- The Visualization Toolkit



-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
Hash: SHA1

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

It's been almost a year since I packaged vtk-3.1, which I never got to
comply with policy but have been using, from time to time, on my own
systems.

Now there's a 3.1.2 version at ftp://public.kitware.com/pub/vtk (with
a version 3.2 in the wings). Also, XFree86 4 seems better suited to
using GL applications.

The observant among you may have seen vtk-doc_3.2-1_all.deb hit the
package pool. Although it's big, it shouldn't hurt the
autobuilders. (There was no upstream doc package for 3.1.2 and
earlier).

At this time I and working on the following lintian errors:
 file-directly-in-usr-share-doc
 ldconfig-symlink-missing-for-shlib
 no-shlibs-control-file
 postinst-must-call-ldconfig
and warning:
 non-dev-pkg-with-shlib-symlink

And I am working on reducing the size of the diff (upstream doesn't
have a clean enough distclean target).

Upload will be soon, I hope, and will entail the following:
 vtk libvtk libvtk-dev libvtk-patented python-vtk vtk-examples
 task-vtk

There might be a vtk-data coming, and version 3.2 should have a
vtk-java included.
