[Paraview] ParaView Python

[Berk Geveci]

Most probably. The only way to get around this (and other similar problems)
is to build ParaView from source using the same version of Python and Qt
as yours. Otherwise, you'll get conflicts. Also, make sure that your Mac
target is the same as your Python when building. I forgot the CMake variable
for it. Something with target...
