Did this happen during a clean build? That is, did you completely delete all of your binary files and then configure a new build from scratch? Often errors like this resolve themselves with a clean build.

>>> Python is becoming ever more important in ParaView. 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?
