[Paraview] Issue with ParaView and python

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

Are you sure you're using the same Python version as you used to build
the binaries? That could be one reason why. Another possibility is
with pure Python some libraries from other builds of ParaView maybe
getting loaded. On Ubuntu, you can use set the environment variable
LD_DEBUG=libs and LD_DEBUG_OUTPUT=/tmp/log.txt and then run the
program and look at log file to see if you see any such mismatch.
