Problem with the Installing of VTK in Ubuntu

Support

I am facing the following problem. Can Anyone please help? Thank you.

Update the VERSION argument <min> value or use a ...<max> suffix to tell
  CMake that the project does not need compatibility with older versions.

Did you try building Slicer to know if the same issue happens there?

It’s a side step but I hope it helps

I am using the following steps to install LIGGGHTS. May I know where is the problem going on? When I am using "make auto ", I am getting the mentioned error.

sudo apt-get install ffmpeg
sudo apt install openmpi-bin
sudo apt install git
git clone https://github.com/CFDEMproject/LIGGGHTS-PUBLIC.git

sudo apt install cmake libavcodec-dev libavformat-dev libavutil-dev libboost-dev
libdouble-conversion-dev libeigen3-dev libexpat1-dev libfontconfig-dev libfreetype6-dev

libtiff-dev libxml2-dev libxt-dev qtbase5-dev qttools5-dev zlib1g-dev

cd ~/LIGGGHTS-PUBLIC/src
make auto
gedit MAKE/Makefile.user
USE_VTK is set to “ON”
AUTOINSTALL_VTK = "ON"
make auto
sudo ln -s ~/LIGGGHTS-PUBLIC/src/lmp_auto /bin/lmp380
lmp380

Looking for some cordial help. Thank you.
