[Pkg-scicomp-devel] [Paraview] paraview 3.2.2 is in Debian

[Berk Geveci]

We fixed the gcc 4.3 issues in cvs. Our approach was slightly
different. We included the C headers instead of their C++ counterparts
(stdlib.h instead of cstdlib etc.) to make sure everything works with
older (really older) compilers that we support for VTK. The cmake 2.6
patch is not needed either. I took a quick look at the other patches,
they seem to be debian installation specific. Please let me know if
there is anything I should look at more carefully.
