<br>
I just installed the vtk in my fc3 linux box and here is what I got when type "vtk mace.tcl":<br>
<br>
vtk: error while loading shared libraries: libvtkCommonTCL.so.5.0: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory<br>

I've put the /usr/local/lib in the /etc/ld.so.conf and I also did the
<pre>$/sbin/ldconfig -v -n /usr/local/lib<br><br>but still no luck. I checked the /usr/local/lib and libvtkCommonTCL.so.5.0 is linked to libvtkCommonTCL.so.5.0.0 there.<br><br>Your kindly help is highly appreciated. Thanks ahead!
