Since I did this upload as a team upload I can give you one comment (I don't used the program myself, and I have no idea how to use it, I am only somewhat familiar with VTK, but also only from the "get it to compile" side and not so much from the "how to use it properly"). With this upload I switched the package from using the deprecated "OpenGL" redering interface (based on OpenGL 1.1) to the new "OpenGL2" rendering interface (based on openGL 3.2), which means that his might be a fallout from this rather big upstream change. These two upstream bugs might also be related: https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/issues/17202 https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/issues/16882 Best, Gert
