[Paraview] Strange error building paraview-superbuild als nightly build

[Fabian Wein]

Hello,

I have a strange error. The issue is not very important, just a nice 
to have.

I have a simple project building paraview-superbuild as external 
project which includes applying two simple patches
(add building of the libs boost_filesystem and hdf5_cpp) and our 
external plugin.

When run the project manually (cmake ..) it works reproducible 
perfectly smooth on several Linux machines and Mac.

When I run the project via ctest for a nightly build I have errors 
building qt5. When I do 'make' in my project or
the paraview-superbuild project all runs without any notice of a 
error, simply in install/bin no paraview stuff built.

I diffed Testing/Temporary/LastBuild_20170118-1244.log with the output 
from my manual build.
All is more or less the same but sometimes differently ordered due to 
parallal building (which I don't trigger actively)

The real difference start in the ctest log in line ~36500
with

In the manual built it is

I cannot see how this is caused by my ctest script

-------------------------------------------------------------

The CMakeCache.txt in my build directory and the paraview-superbuild 
build directory are identical

Anyone has any idea? I can live without nightly builds but it would be 
nice for me to understand.
