Bug#981321: QVTKOpenGLWidget.h: No such file or directory

[Drew Parsons]

Package: libvtk7-dev
Version: 7.1.1+dfsg2-8
Severity: normal

This is the VTK-7 counterpart for Bug#979306 filed against VTK-9.

As discussed there, avogadrolibs want to use QVTKOpenGLWidget, so this VTK
component is required to activate VTK in avogadro.

VTK-9 made major changes to the way applications configure cmake to
build against it. So it will take time for applications to update to
VTK-9 (I filed https://github.com/OpenChemistry/avogadrolibs/issues/516
for avogadrolibs).

Hence in the meantime I'm testing builds of avogadrolibs against
VTK-7, but coming against the same kind of problem raised in #979306

libvtk9-qt-dev provides QVTKOpenGLStereoWidget.h (Bug#979306 is about
also providing QVTKOpenGLWidget.h as a deprecated header)

But libvtk7-qt-dev does not provide any QVTKOpenGL*
Does it need more configuration similar to what was done for
Bug#979073 ?

Cheers,
Drew
