[Therion] Therion compiling error (Loch, lxGUI)

[Christian Rößler (Roessler)]

Good evening,

I am trying to compile Therion on an openSuse 13.2 64bit, and had no 
success so far. After some research (including the mailing list, of 
course) I noticed it seems to be hanging on Loch compiling, as you maybe 
would have guessed:).

I used the patch of detrito (29.12.2015 10:56, many thanks for that, by 
the way!) and set C_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/include/vtk-6.1, and also 
CPLUS_INCLUDE_PATH=/usr/include/vtk-6.1 (a link from /usr/include/vtk --> 
vtk-6.1 would have also sufficed, perhaps, after I saw  
I"/usr/include/vtk/" in the compiling messages.

But now it hangs at:

…and I do not know how to get over this error. I would very much like to 
use Therion again. Has anyona a hint for me how to cope with this error, 
please?

Best regards,
