Hi Yap,
 for using vmtk on Redhat you have to build it from scratch, there are no 
binary releases at the moment.

Building vmtk is not a big deal, especially since the adoption of Superbuild, 
which downloads and builds
all the dependencies for you.

1. Make sure you have git and cmake installed on your system.
2. Download vmtk (github.com/lantiga/vmtk click on the Downloads button and 
click on one of the two "Download source" buttons on the top of the popup, 
unzip downloaded the package - say the unzipped directory is at /home/user/vmtk)
3. Create a directory, e.g. /home/user/vmtk-build
4. cd into /home/user/vmtk-build and run
ccmake /home/user/vmtk
from there
5. Press 'c' to configure and 'g' as soon as "Generate" appears among the 
commands. CMake will exit.
6. Run
make
This should start cloning the VTK and ITK repositories, and build the whole 
thing.
7. Run
make install
This will install the compiled vmtk in the Install directory under 
/home/user/vmtk-build

You're good to go now. Just configure the environment variables (PATH, 
LD_LIBRARY_PATH and PYTHONPATH) and you're set (I have no time for this last 
bit, but start following the steps above and we'll get to this when you're 
done).

Hope this helps

Luca
