[Paraview] Segmentation fault when starting ParaView

[Martin Reitzle]

Hi Andy,

thanks for your swift reply. Disabling the PV config file resulted in 
another error:
vtkEventQtSlotConnect (0x1a18b10): Cannot connect NULL objects.

However, your remark set me on the right track. The problem was an old 
PV_PLUGIN_PATH variable which pointed to python plugins that I built for 
a different PV version. A simple $ export PV_PLUGIN_PATH="" did the 
trick. Thanks again!

Cheers,
Martin
