for ASTE, try VTK 9 from PIP

IIRC, this was the reason I upgraded the version in the CI as well https://github.com/precice/aste/commit/9ecaddd7924ce2fe82032bc672d0f23fa89f8bc6

I'm not sure if pip-only installations are sufficient. In aste, we also use the C++ interface and I always used to compile my own version of VTK. Instructions are provided in the VTK docs. TL;DR; you can download a version and use CMake to build it.

Then I will try with VTK 9 from APT, and then we need to check again once we want to upgrade to Ubuntu 22.04 (or 24.04), see #45.

MakisH commented 5 months ago

Actually, VTK 9 is available only since Ubuntu 22.04: https://packages.ubuntu.com/search?suite=jammy&searchon=names&keywords=libvtk9-dev

VTK 7 is fine with the current state of the VM (Ubuntu 20.04, NumPy from APT) and the latest ASTE. The VM builds and the aste-turbine tutorial runs.

We will anyway need to upgrade VTK once we upgrade the Ubuntu version. Closing for now.
