Qoestion about compiling getting_started.cpp

[dayexingyang]

I followed the installation document step by step, and tried to configure and compile getting_started.cpp in the document. But there are errors occurred as follow. I have installed the VTK following the installation. I am a complete beginner in Linux（version ubuntu 14.04), I don't know how to solve this problem.

Hi @dayexingyang, sorry for the delay in getting to this.

I believe that the complaints about "imported target X references the file ..." are simply warnings. If you only install some of the vtk libraries on your system (you only need the core vtk libraries for Aboria, not the extras), then the cmake FindVTK.cmake script will complain about the missing ones, but won't generate an error. I couldn't actually see any errors in what you pasted above, did you paste the full output from cmake?
