Hi Mathias,

Thanks for the reply.  It appears that removing the CMakeCache.txt file did
the trick.  Now it finds the openvrml libs and builds the plugin.  It turns
out I still can't view the wrl file though ... it's a whole bunch of line
segments which maybe isn't supported by the vrml plugin?  I might have to
see if I can hack a script to convert it to ac3d format or find some other
tool that can import the file correctly and then export it again as
something else.  Blender unfortunately only supports vrml-1.0 and the file
I'm working with is vrml-2.0.

The wrl file is CFD streamlines around a 3d model so I'm hoping it will look
really cool if I can get it to load and render in flightgear ...

Curt.
