Summary0003824: VTK can't use system versions of NetCDF, DICOMParser and FTGL libraries
DescriptionAxel Thimm is trying to include VTK in Fedora Extras repository. (see: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/199405 [^])

Durring this Patrice Dumas discovered that user can't use system versions of NetCDF, DICOMParser and FTGL libraries, but i.e system versions of zlib or FreeType can be used.

The next problem with this is that above libraries included in VTK source are outdated. It would be much appreciated to enable in VTK use of system wide versions of NetCDF, DICOMParser and FTGL libraries.

If you can please include a patch for:
- DICOMParser upgrade (knowing that we modified it)
- NetCDF upgrade
- FTGL upgrade

I thought you will provide patch for this if I file this bug (as you are VTK maintainer). If I have patch I would not open bug like this but instead send it i.e on mailing list.

This should be fixed by the patch given in issue 11823

Actually, that doesn't handle the NetCDF case. I've attached something I'll be using in Fedora. To make this general though I think we need to create vtk_netcdf.h.in and use the different contents based on VTK_USE_SYSTEM_NETCDF.

We also still need to handle building against the system ftgl

sys netcdf fixed in 6.1 via commit 7f4a0e16f90019bfc39ded1ff8d27c139798e8dc on 2013-11-06

Completely agree that the rest of VTK's ThirdPartyLibrary dependencies need to be both updated and, where not enabled currently, made to allow use of system library. It will only happen piecemeal as projects need it, so patches are appreciated.

Closing this bug, please open a new bug for each TPL that the community needs to help coordinate. Also please submit patches via gerrit to facilitate testing.
