> vtk6 is not installable (and thus libvtk6-dev as well). Problem is, that
> vtk6 contains a conflict against tcl-vtk because both of them contain
> /usr/bin/vtk. Starting with 6.1.0+dfsg-4 libvtk6.1 depends on libxdmf2,
> which depends on tcl-vtk. As vtk6 depends on libvtk6.1, it's not
> installable. I guess we either have to remove /usr/bin/vtk from the
> package or revert the dependency on libxdmf2.
