I'm trying to use `sci-mathematics/maxima` for visualization with vtk. But running script causes error: $ TCLLIBPATH=/usr/lib/tcltk/vtk-6.1/ vtk maxout21930.tcl couldn't load file "/usr/lib/libvtkCommonCoreTCL-6.1.so": /usr/lib/libvtkCommonCoreTCL-6.1.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory attempt to provide package vtkCommonCoreTCL 6.1 failed: no version of package vtkCommonCoreTCL provided attempt to provide package vtkcommoncore 6.1 failed: no version of package vtkcommoncore provided Error in startup script: attempt to provide package vtk 6.1 failed: no version of package vtk provided ("package ifneeded vtk 6.1" script) invoked from within "package.orig require vtk" ("eval" body line 1) invoked from within "eval package.orig $args" (procedure "package" line 2) invoked from within "package require vtk" (file "maxout21930.tcl" line 1) Making sonames with `-6.1.so` suffix as symlinks to `.so` libraries fixes the problem. Examples of `maxima` scripts to test could be found here http://riotorto.users.sourceforge.net/Maxima/vtk/ Reproducible: Always
