[Paraview] MacOSX Linking problems

[Michael Jackson]

do a "make VERBOSE=1" and you can see exactly what the compiler is being sent as far as -I include directories. I would say that something is missing either in your HDF5 installation, or an HDF5 include path is not being found.

Doesn't VTK come with HDF5 at this point? Why not just let VTK build its own.
