1 hi all

3 I saw a topic about ParaView ebuild in archive. I'm also interesting it in
4 this application. I did some investigation and found that ParaView source
5 already contain VTK. of course it would be preferable to have VTK package
6 installed separately, but as well as I understood it is hard to compile
7 ParaView using external VTK, and ParaView developers prefer not to do that (I
8 found something like that in their maillist)

10 one more interesting visualization application is VisIt
11 http://www.llnl.gov/visit/about.html
12 it also based on VTK.
13
14 Unfortunately I cannot spend much time now for compilation from source and
15 ebuild writing (and I'm not experienced in it), but I'm ready to be a tester.
