[Paraview] ParaView 5 Crashes on macOS (Sierra)

[Zach Davis]

Hi Cory,

This build works for me.  I don’t have the crashing issue as before.  On a completely unrelated note since I’m replying to the entire mailing list, is there a way to view mesh files in the Gmsh format using ParaView?

Best Regards,

The application can be opened, but anytime I attempt to open a file the application crashes before even displaying the Open/Save dialog window.  The termination signal is a Segmentation fault of type 11.  I’ve attached the crash report for anyone more knowledgeable about what the issue is.  Has anyone else experienced this issue?  Is there a workaround?
