[Paraview] Superbuild and OSX

Mon Sep 8 11:28:28 EDT 2014

Don't use ninja..on OsX or Linux. Stick with make files for those for now.

I did a bit of digging and found that the generated pv-paraview-build.cmake was trying to execute the following command: step_command-NOTFOUND. It seems to be related to trying to use ninja instead of make files. I switched to make files and the build is in progress.

I removed the sysroot flag from the top-level CMakeLists.txt, but then the ParaView CMake setup fails for a reason I can’t seem to understand. I’m attaching the log showing the CMake output. The only obvious thing I see is the Fortran compiler. Is that required?
