<P><FONT SIZE=2>Hi<BR>
I have a problem in the installation of VTK, in particular in building cmake.<BR>
I have created a directory called /usr/local/vtk in which I have unrar tarball vtk-5.4.2.tar.gz<BR>
than I have Created a binary directory to compile the code: /usr/local/vtk/VTK/bin<BR>
than changing directory to the binary directory, and running the CMake configuration tool in this way:<BR>
<BR>
cd /usr/local/vtk/VTK/bin<BR>
ccmake ..<BR>
<BR>
Now when I press 'c' to configure the output is that:<BR>
<BR>
<BR>
