[Paraview] Error building ParaView with OSMesa and Python

[Ian Krukow]

Ok, I found the problem - and a solution.

There are two versions of Python installed on the cluster, 2.4 and 2.7. 
CCMake automatically found Python 2.7, but there is obviously no 
libpython2.7.so, only libpython2.7.a. So CCMake took the library of 
Python 2.4, but everything else from Python 2.7.
Now, I use a seperately built Python 2.7 of a colleague, and everything 
is fine.

Sorry for the disturbance!
Ian
