Hi,

I try to compile vtk with the following options:

```auto
  # Do the following under the build directory locating at vtk sourcecode directory: 
  $ cmake -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/werner/vtk \
            -DCMAKE_INSTALL_RPATH=/home/werner/vtk/lib \
            -DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=/home/werner/.pyenv/versions/3.8.3/bin/python \
            -DPYTHON_INCLUDE_DIR=/home/werner/.pyenv/versions/3.8.3/include/python3.8 \
            -DPYTHON_LIBRARY=/home/werner/.pyenv/versions/3.8.3/lib/libpython3.8.so \
            -DVTK_WRAP_PYTHON=ON \
            -DVTK_PYTHON_VERSION=3 -DVTK_WHEEL_BUILD=ON ..
  $ python setup.py bdist_wheel
  $ make -j48
  $ make install

```

This method will not gererate the vtkpython which will be installed into $CMAKE\_INSTALL\_PREFIX/bin

Any hints for this problem?

Regards
