When trying to start Paraview on TW 20230922 I get the following error:

paraview: symbol lookup error: /lib64/libvtkRemotingServerManager-pv5.11.so.1: undefined symbol: _ZN6google8protobuf8internal17AssignDescriptorsEPFPKNS1_15DescriptorTableEvEPN4absl12lts_202301259once_flagERKNS0_8MetadataE
Comment 1 Atri Bhattacharya 2023-09-28 11:58:41 UTC 
Thanks for the report. I can indeed reproduce this from the paraview in Factory. Surprisingly, the package from science works fine for me.

Andrea, can you confirm the paraview package from science [https://build.opensuse.org/package/show/science/paraview] works for you?

CC'ing Vincente for suggestions.

Yes, I confirm you that the ParaView package from science works.

Some good news: while I could not figure out what precisely the problem was¹, with the package from openSUSE:Factory (repo-oss), we have just today pushed a version update to 5.11.2 and the updated package from the same repository works on my system.

Let me know if it does for you as well, when the package is available with the next TW snapshot.

¹Think it just needed a rebuild against some other updated library in the repo, but just my guess.
Comment 5 Atri Bhattacharya 2023-10-13 19:00:25 UTC 
Should be solved with updated paraview now in Factory.
