Bug#753680: [paraview] fail to build application on top of paraview

[trophime]

Package: paraview
Version: 4.1.0+dfsg-3
Severity: normal

Trying to build application on top of paraview-dev (for instance Salome 7.4.0)
because of some missing files:

usr/lib/cmake/paraview/VTKTargets.cmake
usr/lib/cmake/paraview/Modules/*.cmake
usr/lib/cmake/paraview/Modules/*.txt

usr/bin/vtkHashSource
usr/bin/vtkWrapPython
usr/bin/vtkWrapTcl
usr/bin/vtkWrapPythonInit
usr/bin/vtkParseJava
usr/bin/vtkWrapJava
usr/bin/vtkWrapTclInit
usr/bin/vtkParseOGLExt
usr/bin/vtkWrapHierarchy
usr/bin/smTestDriver
usr/bin/vtkkwProcessXML
usr/bin/vtkEncodeString

It's fairly easy to add these files to the paraview-dev package.
eg for VTKTargets.cmake:
override_dh_install:
	# install missing file
	mkdir -p $(DESTDIR)/usr/lib/cmake/paraview
	find . -name VTKTargets.cmake | xargs -i -t install -m 644 {} $(DESTDIR)/usr/lib/cmake/paraview/
	sed -i "s%\(IMPORTED_LOCATION_NONE.*\"\).*/lib/\([^/]\+\"\)%\1/usr/lib/paraview/\2%g" $(DESTDIR)/usr/lib/cmake/paraview/
VTKTargets.cmake
	sed -i "s%\(IMPORTED_LOCATION_NONE.*\"\).*/bin/\([^/]\+\"\)%\1/usr/bin/\2%g" $(DESTDIR)/usr/lib/cmake/paraview/VTKTarget
s.cmake
	#cat $(DESTDIR)/usr/lib/cmake/paraview/VTKTargets.cmake
	#find . -name VTKTargets.cmake
	
	dh_install --list-missing



However there are some name clashes with tcl-tk, libvtk5-dev, libvtk-java and python-vtk
5.8.0 versions.

The solution is either :
* to add conflicts with these vtk5 packages
* or to use an extension for any executables generated by paraview 
by removing the -DVTK_CUSTOM_LIBRARY_SUFFIX="" option in cmake  

I would personally by in favor of the second solution as it will
enable to install and use both paraview, vtk6 and vtk5 packages 
on a given machine

Best
