 I tried to do a clean install of VTK5 with Python27 on Snow Leopard
 (10.6.8) but with no success. I had earlier been able to build VTK5 via
 ports and therefore suspect that version 5.10.1 is causing trouble. The
 tail of the relevant log file `/opt/local/.../vtk5/main.log` is as
 follows:

 {{{

 }}}

 Unfortunately, I cannot attach the entire log file since it's 23 MB large.

 I have tried following all suggested steps (clean, uninstall inactive,
 update, install) but to no avail. In fact, VTK5 fails to install even
 without specifying +python27 although that's what I was originally going
 for. Additionally, trying any other sensible combination of switches for
 the port also leads to failure.

 I wish to request you to please let me know if there's something that I
 can do to ensure a successful build. Additionally, is there a way to grab
 the earlier version 10.5.0 which seems to be available at
 http://packages.macports.org/vtk5/ but which I couldn't get to (probably I
 didn't read the manual carefully enough).
