[Paraview] Save animation using client-server topology with point sprite plugin results in crash

[Fabio Motezuki]

  Hi,

I was trying to save some animations using the paraview 3.8.0 binary 
distribution from the site and Point-Sprite plugin in a simple client-server 
connection using the option "disconnect before saving animation", but appears 
that in some point in the code the point-sprite plugin is missing or not loaded.
The server-side error messages are the following:
