Hi,

I was trying to build Paraview-5.7 for my Cray XC40 with Nvidia IndeX plugin support. I was able to successfully make it from superbuild and run Paraview in install/bin/pvserver after fixing a linking issue on libcuda.so.1  
using  
`ln -f -s /opt/cray/nvidia/default/lib64/libcuda.so $SCRATCH/paraview-build-new-indeX/install/lib/libcuda.so.1`  
And I get successful Accepting connections message on issing pvserver and was able to load IndeX plugin.

However if I give `make install` to collect the dependencies and put it in the install directory, I get the following error. Any help with this matter would be extremely useful.

```
  Failed to install pvNVIDIAIndeX.so:
