I decided to start a new thread. The original subject was "[Paraview] Is there any point to compiling with MPI but without offscreen rendering?" and John Biddiscombe asked if I had thoughts on improvements to the cmake options for compiling VTK and ParaView with OSMesa.
For me, I pretty much just have two use cases, 1) vanilla ParaView, or 2) ParaView configured with OSMesa and without X11. I'm not sure that I've ever worried about the VTK_USE_OFFSCREEN option or the pvserver flag --use-offscreen-rendering. But maybe these options are required to satisfy other use cases? I'm not sure.
