I am installing on a local Ubuntu 16.04 natively using the commands/instructions here.. On the last step, when I run cmake, I get the following errors:

What is going on here?
The system cannot find VTK. Make sure libvtk6-dev is installed. The wiki is out of date, I wouldn’t follow the instructions there. Follow this guide instead: http://docs.opendronemap.org/building.html#native-installation-ubuntu-16-04
Have you run configure.sh install?
Hi,
I stumbled upon exactly the same issue and error message. The following message appear when I execute “bash configure.sh install”. Hope there is a solution for this missing library since installing libvtk6-dev manually does not solve this error.
Thanks in advance

1.Make sure that you actually have VTK built or try building manually from GitHub - Kitware/VTK: Mirror of Visualization Toolkit repository (DO NOT FORGET TO BUILD VERSION 6.0)
2. Try adding LINK_DIRECTORIES(/path/to/your/VTK/build/lib) to the CMakeLists.txt and run sudo cmake -L/path/to/your/VTK/build/lib …
3. Try installing pip install PyVTK
4. If all does not work try checking /path/to/your/VTK/build/lib and /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lfilename there should be *.so file for that if names are not same e.g there can be version written (lvtkftgl8.1.so) try writing the name without version name (lvtkftgl.so)
These worked on me. Hope it helps.

Hello, I am trying to install ODM in a gcloud instance, but I am stuck at the VTK install issue.
-Do I really need to install VTK 6.0.0?? (it is from 2013)

Sorry for late answer. I assume some problem occurs on some devices when the program uses new version of vtk. To be honest i did not search why it occurs, i just looked for the solution 
If you really need to use the newer version of VTK you can try 4th step on my answer. I have never tried but if you really need you can give it a try.
