[Paraview-developers] QtHelp seg fault

[Biddiscombe, John A.]

just FYI : WE have a new cluster and I compiled Qt fresh and built paraview and the segfault occurred. Once we set up a module for Qt which correctly set the Qt bin path etc, then the segfault went away. Clearly the Qt help app was not happy internally about something.
