[Paraview] Building Paraview on Mac with MPI and Python

[Pierre-Olivier Dallaire]

Hi,

I've been trying to build Paraview 3.14.1 from sources with options BUILD_SHARED_LIBS:BOOL=ON, PARAVIEW_ENABLE_PYTHON:BOOL=ON
and PARAVIEW_USE_MPI:BOOL=ON. I have a working version of openmpi-1.6 compiled on my machine. However, it seems that the mpi/python module
fails to launch during the process:

[ 48%] Built target paraview_mpi_pyc
Linking CXX shared module ../../../bin/MPIPython.so

ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64

Note that I've been able to build Paraview without any problem with the parallel option disable.

Any idea ?

Thanks !
