Drake: Use vtkCapsuleSource directly from VTK

Created on 6 Nov 2019  路  11Comments  路  Source: RobotLocomotion/drake

Use vtkCapsuleSource once it's been pulled upstream into VTK itself, see https://gitlab.kitware.com/vtk/vtk/issues/17720
Then we can undo the third party changes in #12305

Relates to #10153

Assigning to @jamiesnape for now.

Despite low priority, probably need to do this sooner rather than later to make it into VTK 9 (it is not a difficult or time consuming task, however).

Jamie's aiming to submit PR by EOD tomorrow.

VTK PR ready; Jamie to add link here.

What's the plan/time frame for the binaries Drake depends on to get updated?

It's high on my TODO list, so this week.

(Will happen this or next week, due to some FCL bugfixing getting bumped up in the queue)

Just waiting to update Drake. May wait for VTK 9.

FYI VTK 9.0 RC1 is out.
