Hi folks,

As mentioned in previous question, I am now trying to install yade on ubuntu 16.04. 

According to the problems and warnings I face during the installation process, there is something missing in the online documentation (e.g. the "sudo apt-get -y install libopenblas-dev libsuitesparse-dev libmetis-dev" instruction to use instead of the "sudo apt-get install libopenblas-dev libsuitesparse-metis-dev" mentioned online, thanks Robert for that).

In addition, here are other messages that appear during the cmake stage:

1) qmake: could not exec '/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/qt4/bin/qmake': No such file or directory
-- Found unsuitable Qt version "" from NOTFOUND

2) -- The imported target "vtkRenderingPythonTkWidgets" references the file
   "/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libvtkRenderingPythonTkWidgets.so"
but this file does not exist.  Possible reasons include:
* The file was deleted, renamed, or moved to another location.
* An install or uninstall procedure did not complete successfully.
* The installation package was faulty and contained
   "/usr/lib/cmake/vtk-6.2/VTKTargets.cmake"
but not all the files it references.

3) -- The imported target "vtk" references the file
   "/usr/bin/vtk"
but this file does not exist.  Possible reasons include:
* The file was deleted, renamed, or moved to another location.
* An install or uninstall procedure did not complete successfully.
* The installation package was faulty and contained
   "/usr/lib/cmake/vtk-6.2/VTKTargets.cmake"
but not all the files it references.

I am certainly not an expert for these aspects but it seems that these messages comes from the fact that:

1) qt5 is used instead of qt4

2 and 3) python-vtk6 is used instead of python-vtk

If you guys have suggestions for "solving" these "problems", I could even update the online doc myself if needed.

I must say that, nonetheless, compilation went well and yade seems to work correctly.
