[Paraview] Segmentation fault from ProgrammableFilter/Source

[Gerrit Laube]

Hi,

I'm trying to do some batched postprocessing on a unix cluster using 
pvbatch/pvpython from Paraview3.14 with OSMesa. Unfortunately, I end up 
with an error (see bottom of mail). I could narrow it down to this 
minimal example:

from paraview.simple import *
programmableSource1 = ProgrammableSource()
programmableSource1.Script = 'print "foo"'
UpdatePipeline()

This works on the same machine with the ParaView-4.0.1-Linux-64bit 
superbuild but not with the mentioned PV3.14 that was build on our 
server. Unfortunately, I need this ParaView version for 
off-screen-Rendering.

Any Ideas, why the programmable source and filter are not working while 
other filters do?

Thanks,

Gerrit
