II followed the instructions at this page to build I doenloaded the source and the data from here http://www.vtk.org/VTK/resources/software.html
The VTK-6.1.0.zip for source and the VTKData-6.1.0.zip for data
I extracted source to /home/w/Documents/VTK-6.1.0 and data to /home/w/Documents/VTK-6.1.0/ExternalData
I cd into source directory like this cd ~/Documents/VTK-6.1.0$
and ran ccmake .
then I hit "c" for configure and got
BUILD_DOCUMENTATION OFF
BUILD_EXAMPLES OFF
BUILD_SHARED_LIBS ON
BUILD_TESTING OFF
CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE Debug
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX /usr/local
EXECINFO_LIB EXECINFO_LIB-NOTFOUND
VTK_EXTRA_COMPILER_WARNINGS OFF
VTK_Group_Imaging OFF
VTK_Group_MPI OFF
VTK_Group_Qt OFF
VTK_Group_Rendering ON
VTK_Group_StandAlone ON
VTK_Group_Tk OFF
I think that is the reason I can't build OpenCV with Viz...any help is appreciated
