Please try to find what is linking that library.  I do not think the 
paraview build process tries to link to it explicitly, but it might 
inherit it by linking to some other library.  Go to the directory 
containing the paraview executable and run

   ldd ./paraview |grep ucb
   ldd ./libvtkCommon.so |grep ucb
   ...

for all the libraries and see which ones try to reference ucb.

Thanks,
