Hi Luca,

I know this is hard. Unfortunately I do not have anyone around me to go to
which is why I am on the mailing lists. I really appreciate your help.

Unfortunately, there seems to be an error in this too !

On calling python, I get :

Python 2.7 (r27:82500, Oct 20 2010, 11:56:48)
[GCC 4.1.2 20080704 (Red Hat 4.1.2-46)] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import vtk
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ImportError: No module named vtk
>>>

Best regards,
Vikram.
