Hello,
Please, look at the dependency diagram of Imaging: https://vtk.org/doc/nightly/html/dir_abb77a6a4baf09a5bbdcc1f44c51be6c.html . Maybe you need to add vtkImagingCore and vtkImagingGeneral to your module initializations as well. Sorry, trying to find the correct modules is a bit of trial-and-error. VTK is designed for software built with CMake, which adds these initializations automatically for resolution at compile time. Non-CMake users are left to find the correct modules to initialize.
take care,
Paulo
