I have a user that wants to build his own version of ParaView on his Mac with a nonstandard version of Python (EnThought Python). The superbuild wiki says this is not a good idea. Has anyone done this? Is it possible?

I'd like this too, and have tried but failed. Someone got it working here: http://www.cmake.org/pipermail/paraview/2013-September/029364.html When I build Paraview it crashes at 97% built with an error about QSQLITE. This has nothing to do with python.

[ 97%] Compiling Qt help project AnalyzeNIfTIIO.qhp
Building up file structure...
QSqlDatabase: QSQLITE driver not loaded
QSqlDatabase: available drivers:
Cannot open data base file /Users/mankoff/local/src/ParaView/build/Plugins/AnalyzeNIfTIReaderWriter/doc/AnalyzeNIfTIIO.qch! make[2]: *** [Plugins/AnalyzeNIfTIReaderWriter/doc/AnalyzeNIfTIIO.qch] Error 255 make[1]: *** [Plugins/AnalyzeNIfTIReaderWriter/CMakeFiles/AnalyzeNIfTIIO.dir/all] Error 2 make: *** [all] Error 2

But I think I know how to solve the DYLD_LIBRARY problem mentioned in the thread linked above. I can't test it since I haven't gotten a build working yet, but
sudo install_name_tool -change "@rpath/Python"
"/User/<username>/Library/Enthought/Canopy_64bit/User/"
and it might work.

The blog posts that helped me get this working (in other apps, since I
can't build paraview) are:

Good luck,
