Hi Laurentiu,
the first thing you should do is to try to build vmtk from source. This way,
you'll have a chance get the updated code as soon as I commit it.
Please follow the compilation instructions on the website. After the recent
developments, vmtk should compile without problems along with
all its dependencies. You only need to make sure git and cmake are installed on
your system.
What platform are you on?

Virtualization & Cloud Management Using Capacity Planning
Cloud computing makes use of virtualization - but cloud computing
also focuses on allowing computing to be delivered as a service.
