Building with spack
-------------------------
If you are building with spack, note that the depends_on for paraview
resolves poorly. The +qt dependency (for building the reader module)
may need to be specified as a preference by including the following in
your `~/.spack/packages.yaml` file:

variants: +qt

and attempt to install a paraview~qt version instead.
