[Paraview] [Non-DoD Source] PVSB on Mac OSX 10.12

[Angelini, Richard C (Rick) CIV USARMY RDECOM ARL (US)]

Chuck – I’ll try to force things with the –DUSE_SYSTEM_PNG=OFF.     It is my
intention to allow PVSB to build the png libraries – and it seems to work
everywhere except for OS X 10.12 …
I can see in the 10.12 build that PVSB did indeed build the png libraries,
and there are png entries in superbuild/install/lib and
superbuild/install/include – but the ParaView cmake is not picking up this
information.     Why it only fails here (or works everywhere is) is the
$10,000  mystery ….

Hi Rick,

When using the superbuild, ParaView should always be using a "system" PNG.
The diggerence is whether that will be provided by the OS or the superbuild.
Either way, it's external to the paraview subproject.  Try explicitly
setting -DUSE_SYSTEM_png=OFF when configuring the superbuild.  I'll look
into why the superbuild doesn't properly handle this in the first palce but
explicitl;y setting the option should make your build work.
