This makes sense; ospray requires C++11 support for which GCC 4.8 was the first release with viable support (4.7.x had some, but not enough). > If the new superbuild has support for building mesa 12.0.3, I would be > interested in trying this out.

I'd welcome feedback where the existing docs are deficient (they're in README.md on the master branch) so I can improve those parts. > My intention is to compile paraview without GUI to run it in batch on > our cluster.

There are scripts he has committed which are used to build for specific platforms which you may be able to start using, but he's the best source of instructions for those. --Ben _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the ParaView Wiki at: http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView Search the list archives at: http://markmail.org/search/?q=ParaView Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://public.kitware.com/mailman/listinfo/paraview
