Henry,
Does octaviz have a configure script? If so, cd into the untared
directory and run
./configure --help|less
to see what variables and options can be set. You can either set the
environmental variables ahead of time, i.e. under bash something like
CPPFLAGS=-I/some/strange/place/include
esport CPPFLAGS
or when running configure, something like
./configure CPPFLAGS=-I/some/strange/place/include
Note however: the second variant generally fails if any variable has
more than one argument.

Marius,
Thanks, but I don't think that I had a choice about where Fink is
putting
things or I would have installed Cmake and VTK in /usr/local/bin where
octave-2.1.71 is located (instead of in /sw/bin). Using Fink I was
able to
install VTK quickly to find out what is was all about.
Where is the 'fooling around' to be done?
I.e. with
CPPFLAGS=-I/some/strange/place/include \ and
and
LDFLAGS=-L/some/strange/place/lib
(above copied from a google search for 'LDFLAGS' to find out what it
is.)
I have checked the CMakeLists.txt file in the untared octaviz-0.4.0
directory but could not find LDFLAGS nor CPPFLAGS. I surmise it may be
way
over my head to accomplish something that passes information to the
assembler and linker during the build process.

Henry,
Using finK, or for that DarwinPorts, cause your packages to be
installed outside of the normal search path (i.e. /sw for fink and
/opt/local for DP). There is a reason why I generally build things
into
/usr/local...
You'll have to fool around with LDFLAGS and CPPFLAGS to point things
into the right direction.

I checked SourceForge.net Project: octaviz and found nothing re
octaviz
installation on Mac. Hopefully I'll get a hint here what I should try
next.
Jonathan was correct: I was able to use Fink to install CMake1.8.3-1
and
VTK-py23 4.4.0-5. Many examples/demos are working using:
"vtk -f filename" or
"python -i filename" at the shell prompt.
So far so good.
Now I tried to install octaviz-0.4.0 from source and it failed (see
below)
I've also tried to install in /usr/local/bin but it also failed
(errors not
included).

I do not work on a Mac, and so my help will be limited. I am also
the
only other subscriber to the octaviz list at the moment! You might
also
try the octaviz web forums (in the sourceforge site).
I haven't tried anonymous cvs checkout in awhile, but it should work
according to the sourceforge instructions. You could also try the
last
release, octaviz-0.4. This you can download directly as a tarball.
You will definitely need cmake and vtk (>vtk-4.4) to compile
octaviz.
I
do not know if you can get these through fink or not. If not,
install
them from source from the vtk website (vtk.org).
HTH,

You'll need octave 2.1.53 or later and VTK CVS to build octaviz. To
compile
octaviz, run "ccmake ." in the root directory of the source tree,
then
"make" and finally "make install".

from
somebody who installed octaviz on Mac OS 10.4.2.
Also, it it not potentially problematic to create a directory

when I already have a directory "/Developer"?
Also, VTK requires Cmake. I'm not sure if I have it.
