[Paraview] Installing paraviewweb on a raspberry pi

[Faraz Hussain]

Thanks for your help in installing Paraview on a raspberry pi. I  
followed the steps in:

http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView:Build_And_Install

However, when I configure ccmake it says QT is needed. I could not  
figure out if I can ignore that. The "generate" command did not come up.

On a side note, it took me a while to find ccmake. I thought it was  
installed with cmake, but seems I had to install it separately using  
"sudo apt-get install cmake-curses-gui" . Perhaps the instructions  
should be updated to reflect this to avoid confusion.
