[Paraview] Qt5/Ubuntu

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

Here are some of the vars I set on my build:

//The directory containing a CMake configuration file for Qt5Core.
Qt5Core_DIR:PATH=/home/utkarsh/Software/qt/5.7.0/install/lib/cmake/Qt5Core

//The directory containing a CMake configuration file for Qt5Gui.
Qt5Gui_DIR:PATH=/home/utkarsh/Software/qt/5.7.0/install/lib/cmake/Qt5Gui

//The directory containing a CMake configuration file for Qt5Help.
Qt5Help_DIR:PATH=/home/utkarsh/Software/qt/5.7.0/install/lib/cmake/Qt5Help

//The directory containing a CMake configuration file for Qt5Network.
Qt5Network_DIR:PATH=/home/utkarsh/Software/qt/5.7.0/install/lib/cmake/Qt5Network

//The directory containing a CMake configuration file for Qt5Test.
Qt5Test_DIR:PATH=/home/utkarsh/Software/qt/5.7.0/install/lib/cmake/Qt5Test

//The directory containing a CMake configuration file for Qt5UiPlugin.
Qt5UiPlugin_DIR:PATH=/home/utkarsh/Software/qt/5.7.0/install/lib/cmake/Qt5UiPlugin

//The directory containing a CMake configuration file for Qt5UiTools.
Qt5UiTools_DIR:PATH=/home/utkarsh/Software/qt/5.7.0/install/lib/cmake/Qt5UiTools

//The directory containing a CMake configuration file for Qt5Widgets.
Qt5Widgets_DIR:PATH=/home/utkarsh/Software/qt/5.7.0/install/lib/cmake/Qt5Widgets

//The directory containing a CMake configuration file for Qt5X11Extras.
Qt5X11Extras_DIR:PATH=/home/utkarsh/Software/qt/5.7.0/install/lib/cmake/Qt5X11Extras

//The directory containing a CMake configuration file for Qt5.
Qt5_DIR:PATH=/home/utkarsh/Software/qt/5.7.0/install/lib/cmake/Qt5

If you're using ParaView 5.*, you may need to specify most (if not
all). With ParaView "master", only setting the Qt5_DIR does the trick.
