[Paraview] Python Error in Python Shell

[Mike Jackson]

I found the "D" section of the Python cmake code and it seems to be  
hard coded in there. So you are probably correct, it doesn't stand  
for "Debug".

I guess I need to track down where the libvtkCommonPython.so is  
created to see if I can tie into that cmake code to create shell  
scripts that will copy and update those as plugins. Any ideas where  
those targets are created?
