Notes

Building ParaView-4.3.1/4.4.0/5.0.0

The ParaView-4.3.1/4.4.0/5.0.0 source-pack provided by KitWare will not build and install correctly without a minor correction: lines 653-656 (650-653 in ParaView-5.0.0) must be removed or commented from file ThirdParty-dev/ParaView-[45].?.?/Qt/Components/CMakeLists.txt after unpacking and renaming the ParaView-[45].?.? directory. This is because the file ui_pqExportStateWizard.h referred to in

if(PARAVIEW_INSTALL_DEVELOPMENT_FILES)
  install(FILES "${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/ui_pqExportStateWizard.h"
          DESTINATION "${VTK_INSTALL_INCLUDE_DIR}")
endif()

does not exist and cannot be installed causing the build and installation to fail.

Additionally for ParaView-4.4.0 there is a bug in the STL reader which can be patched by running the following command from within the ThirdParty-??? directory:

Building ParaView-4.1.0

On Ubuntu 14.10 and higher, OpenSuSE 13.2 and probably other recent GNU/Linux distributions there is an issue in the GL libraries requiring a change to the vtkXOpenGLRenderWindow.cxx file in ParaView: Uncomment line 30

#define GLX_GLXEXT_LEGACY
