If you just want a quick workaround to avoid this particular problem, you can comment out the "closedSplines" test in the VTK/Filtering/Testing/Python/CMakeLists.txt file. Use a "#" character to comment out the line that says "closedSplines".<br>
<br>There must be something unique about your system or your python installation that triggers this issue, because we do not see this on the VTK dashboards that have python wrapping turned on... Do you have a development build of python on this machine? Anything else unique?<br>
