[sage-devel] Re: vtk optional package
The problem is that on Linux, if you don't have the opengl libraries (typically libgl1-mesa-dev) then vtk won't build but the package exits successfully. I guess I need to add my own tests for open gl libraries on linux like I do for tcl/tk.

[sage-devel] Re: vtk optional package
I have a patch in my spkgs directory (vtk_plot.hg)
If you apply it, there will be 3 functions
vtk_plot_surface, vtk_plot_array, and vtk_plot_3d_iso
For example
sage: f=lambda x,y:sin(sqrt(x^2+y^2))
sage: vtk_plot_surface(f,-2,2,-2,2,num_points=100)

Yes. I can confirm that after installing those package I have an install
of vtk and mayavi, since:
sage: import mayavi
sage: # no error!
Now what do I do? :-)
