[Paraview] error when running paraview from git

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

Are you okay with using the debugger and tracking this down? I cannot

comfortable using a debugger, try rebuilding with CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE set
to "Debug" and the attach the debugger and let's get the call stack
for the error and the segfault.
