On Fed7 and Fed 8 (x86 and i386) i detected that vtk-qt is broken. If you install the package it is not working (segfault) and the qt-designer3 crashes immediatly after installation of vtk-qt, because of the vtk-qt plugin. Compilation of the original vtk (5.03) package solved the problem.
Hi, I have just compiled vtk from the 5.0.3 sources at www.vtk.org (using gcc 4.2.1 from Fedora 8) and the problem with the Qt plugin persists (segfault when launching designer), contrary to what you comment in your message. Could you please confirm that your compilation actually worked? Thanks
I recompiled vtk with qt support that is working now, but i did not installed the qt designer plugin! In my case all "vtk-qt" programs were running after compilation of vtk 5.03. I will check the plugin.
