Hi, Does your supercomputer have X installed on the compute nodes? If it does you may just need to set the environment to do that ("export DISPLAY=:0" for many machines). It looks like you do since I don't think you'd be able to build Catalyst without those libraries.
If you don't have a graphics card or can't use it then you'll need to build with OSMesa and build Catalyst against that. Information on that is at http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView/ParaView_And_Mesa_3D.
