10:55.50 DaRock starseeker: KISS. As well as DRY (which is why I can't figure out the test repetition :-) ). I'd say if the build is by user "Average", then they should go with the bundled. If the user is Developer/Porter, then they know what they're doing, and can fix it if it goes wrong, so they should supply the required info so that the cmake system doesn't have to go searching. But the auto is there, so it could muddle through for user Average in theory...
10:56.57 DaRock That would fix the tcl/tk issue particularly :-)
10:57.58 DaRock But the biggest hurdle is finding how to get the variables through from the cli
11:00.52 DaRock right now I'm trying putting the TCLCAD_INCLUDE_DIRS in the if statement as well, and adding ITCL_INCLUDE_DIRS and ITK_INCLUDE_DIRS to that block

16:28.42 Notify 03BRL-CAD:starseeker * 69685 brlcad/trunk/src/external/CREO/main.cpp: See if we can let the GUI know where we are...
16:31.17 Notify 03BRL-CAD:starseeker * 69686 brlcad/trunk/src/external/CREO/main.cpp: tweak
16:40.35 Notify 03BRL-CAD:starseeker * 69687 brlcad/trunk/src/external/CREO/main.cpp: output file may clash with another object name - use all.g for now, although even that name really needs uniqueness guarantees.
16:49.37 Notify 03BRL-CAD:starseeker * 69688 brlcad/trunk/src/external/CREO/main.cpp: make a stab at protecting top level name generation

Various minor changes. Need to investigate a different way to convey conversion status - label updating doesn't look like it will (or is designed to) work the way we're trying to use it.
