New release needed ASAP for Python 3.10 (due to VTK 9.2.0+)

See original GitHub issue

Based on this Stack Overflow question the new 9.2.0 release candidate and its changes (see important https://github.com/pyvista/pyvista/pull/2837) are a larger problem than I thought.

On Python 3.10 only the release candidate is available:

$ pip install vtk==
ERROR: Could not find a version that satisfies the requirement vtk== (from versions: 9.2.0rc1)
ERROR: No matching distribution found for vtk==

So when people do pip install pyvista they get PyVista 0.34.1 with VTK 9.2.0rc1, which has all the breakage posted in https://github.com/pyvista/pyvista/pull/2837 plus what’s been fixed since the last PyVista release in April.

We should try to fast-track the VTK version tracking changes and put out a new release, even if this might mean another release not long after, adding additional functionality in the pipeline right now.

Thoughts, @pyvista/developers?

Can this be closed now? I’m surprised it wasn’t autoclosed by GitHub based on #2912 , but maybe there was a reason it wasn’t.

I’d be more than pleased for others to help as well.

@akaszynski Good. Then I will be in doing this time after it is ready for release. If there is anything unclear in the release, I will ask questions.
