Hi Cory,

Sorry if this is not the right place to report the problems.

Texture Map filters (To Sphere or To Plane) are crashing ParaView 5.7.0 RC2 (Also RC1) on Linux:

( 22.417s) [paraview ] vtkSIProxy.cxx:415 ERR| vtkSISourceProxy (0x7f8a4c010630): Failed to create ‘vtkTextureMapToSphere’. This typically means that ParaView does not know about the request class to create an instance of if. Ensure that it has been correctly wrapped using the client-server wrappers and the wrapping has been initialized. Note class names are case-sensitive. Check for typos. Aborting for debugging purposes.
