Hi,
I am trying to install LIGGGHTS in a gnu server. When I trying to create makefile.user using command 'make auto' its not creating. As it is required to set the vtk path. Can anyone please tell me what am I missing?

LIGGGHTS-3.8 version. Within the src window I use the command 'make auto' but there are some error like'

Creating list of contact models completed.
make[1]: Entering directory '/home/FMEA/174170004/LIGGGHTS/LIGGGHTS-PUBLIC/src/Obj_auto'
Makefile:815: *** 'Could not obtain VTK_MAJOR_VERSION. As AUTOINSTALL_VTK is not set to "ON" we cannot continue'. Stop.
make[1]: Leaving directory '/home/FMEA/174170004/LIGGGHTS/LIGGGHTS-PUBLIC/src/Obj_auto'
Makefile:106: recipe for target 'auto' failed
make: *** [auto] Error 2

I already installed VTK-8.2 within the system but still this problem occurs. As from Makefile.user we can add the path od VTK so that's why I asking about the problem
