Our current issues seem to be related to our osmesa build for the HPC_side servers. The Superbuild is building 7.11.2 - you are suggesting that we need to *manually* build a different version of Mesa and somehow link in that new version of Mesa in to the Superbuild? We rely exclusively on the Superbuild for compiling ParaView across 20 different HPC systems - so stepping outside of the super build paradigm isn’t necessarily obvious to me! 8-)

As far as ParaView is concerned, no there's not much more to it. However if your OpenGL implementation doesn't support OpenGL 3.2 (released in 2009), then alas there's more work to get ParaView working which could include building a newer version of Mesa. Not sure if you have seen this blog [1], but that talks about how I got Mesa to build with appropriate OpenGL renderer enabled. Things have gotten a little better since then and the Docker script encapsulates that. The moral of the story is get latest Mesa version and build it with LLVM/Gallum support.
