 Hi,

 After upgrading vtk to 8.2.0 (with python 3.7), I can no longer import
 vtk.  I found vtk.py in /opt/local/lib/python3.7/site-packages while all
 other modules are in
 /opt/local/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/lib/python3.7
 /site-packages

 It look likes VTK_INSTALL_PYTHON_MODULE_DIR is no longer defined the
 portfile, e.g.

 {{{
 -DVTK_INSTALL_PYTHON_MODULE_DIR=${frameworks_dir}/Python.framework/Versions/3.7/lib/python3.7
 /site-packages
 }}}

 has been removed.  Was this intentional?

Comment:

 Isn't this a runtime problem (rather than a build-time problem)? Doesn't
 the fix change the contents of files that get installed? Doesn't that mean
 the revision needs to be increased?
