Not sure what you mean by hard-coding. But my plan to be very specific
was that building paraview plugin would require the paraview-dev
package (and nothing else), while using the paraview plugin would only
require the paraview package. Typically the vtkedge or gdcm package
would B-D on paraview-dev, while the paraview plugin would simply
depends on paraview.

Let me work on getting this behavior working back again in vtkedge.

Thanks
