Hi,
Maybe this could help. In order to compile paraview 5.6.0 with python 3.6.2 (own build),
I had to change in the source directory, paraview/5.6.0/VTK/CMake/vtkWrapSettings.cmake the following:
L5: replace set(VTK_PYTHON_VERSION 2 CACHE STRING with
set(VTK_PYTHON_VERSION 3 CACHE STRING)
I also used the following cmake flags (for python) for the build:
[…]
-DPYTHON_LIBRARY=$PATH/python/3.6.2/lib/libpython3.6m.so.1.0 \
-DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=$PATH/python/3.6.2/bin/python3
-DPYTHON_VERSION=3
[…]
(I also used Qt 5.9.3)
It seems to work fine for me.
Regards,
Eric
