Building a parallel version of ParaView on your system allows you to configure ParaView that way, that it uses your MPI library and compiler to avoiding incompatibilities. If you do not need any special configuration use the prebuild packages provided here (​link)!

In the following we demonstrate how to build ParaView on the example of ParaView 5.3.0 (from 04/2017) on JURECA.
Please ensure you always use the latest version and replace "PV_VERSION" or "PV_VERSION_SHORT" by the appropriate numbers.

All 3rd-party libs and their required versions used by kiteware can be found ​here.
