Hi Gerrit,
The code on the Wiki has been tested with PV 4.0.0, but it sounds like
it no longer works. The issue is that if you do not put *something in
the GL library then CMake will fill it in with the system libGL. That is
the wrong thing to do when using OSMesa and can lead to run time issues
if you don't set LD_LIBRARY_PATH. In recent builds I've been putting
libOSMesa in place of the empty string and that has worked. We can
update the Wiki, however the real solution will be to remove linking of
libGL and X11 libraries when using OSMesa.

Hi Paraview Users, developers or wiki-maintainers (whoever that is),
not sure, who's editing the paraview-wiki, but I think, I came across
a problematic statement on the OSMesa-page:
here
http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/ParaView_And_Mesa_3D
in chapter "Configuring ParaView for use with OSMesa" it says:
...
-DOPENGL_gl_LIBRARY=\"\" \
...
but here
http://www.paraview.org/pipermail/paraview/2013-November/029961.html
it says, that you should avoid empty quotes in this variable. I
experienced similar problems and i think
...
-DOPENGL_gl_LIBRARY= \
...
finally fixed it. You might want to correct or mention this issue in
the wiki.
Regards!
Gerrit
