can spot the issue. Seems like a broken dependency  or something.

Since some functionality from FindData could indeed be kept accessible even not built with Python, I've reported a bug (http://paraview.org/Bug/view.php?id=14471). However, I'd strongly suggest enabling Python. Are you not building with Python due to build issues or site limitations?
