There is fix to be included in next release candidate that could potentially address this problem (we are seeing segfaults on some linux platforms during initialization). I&#39;d suggest waiting for the next release candidate and giving it a try. I don&#39;t think it has anything to do with your installed Qt since ParaView binary packages it&#39;s own Qt.<div>
