To the best of my knowledge, the only build system VTK supports cleanly is CMake, which I understand to be generally popular in the Qt (or at least KDE) community. Perhaps you could convince/help upstream to migrate? https://sourceforge.net/projects/qmake2cmake/ might provide a decent starting point. > It also looks like a transition is needed for any minor versions of > vtk, right? Yes, but since you've arranged to avoid hardcoding the version, binNMUs should at least suffice; you shouldn't need to be directly involved unless there are incompatible API changes. -- Aaron M.
