[arch-general] Kick vtk6 to rebuild?
Hi folks, The vtk6 package in [community] (unmaintained) currently has Python extensions which link against libhdf5.so.10 (for example /opt/vtk6/lib/python2.7/site-packages/vtk/vtkIOAMRPython.so). The package should have had a dependency on hdf5. The hdf5 library has had a so version bump since vtk6 was built (libhdf5.so.10 -> libhdf5.so.100). Would it be possible to just give the vtk6 package a kick it to rebuild, so that the package in [community] can keep working for a little longer? It'll probably work fine if it's just re-built. I unfortunately don't have time to take over the maintainership of the aging vtk6. But if it's possible to just trigger a rebuild, that would be great. Thanks in advance, Elvis

Nevermind, I obviously didn't search the bug database enough: https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/49233 Sorry for the noise. Elvis
Thanks in advance, Elvis
