[Paraview] Cannot compile ParaView 4.0.1

[Andy Bauer]

Hi,

I can't say for sure but my first guess is that it's an issue with the
Python installation that you're using. ParaView won't work with Python 3.0.
I'd suggest trying out the ParaView Superbuild (
http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/Superbuild) which will build all required
dependencies as well. For some of them you can specify that it should use
the system version. Generally, I do this for MPI on HPC systems since they
have a special MPI version. If I'm building the GUI, I also try to use the
system Qt since that just takes a very long time to build.

Regards,
Andy
