[Scott, W Alan]

Here is what I tried that did stop the warnings.  Hack yes, long term fix no, but it worked.

./paraview |& grep -v Fontconfig

Alan,

To follow up on this on the mailing list, ParaView ships with a version of fontconfig newer than the one on your system. The new fontconfig complains when it finds certain parts of the old file format. These are just warnings that shouldn't affect anything.

Unfortunately, there is no easy way to quiet these warnings. We'll need to discuss this further to decide on a course of action.

An issues is reported on the ParaView bug tracker here:

Best,
Cory
