Bug#671753: paraview: pvpython doesn't start

[Oliver Sander]

Package: paraview
Version: 3.14.1-1
Severity: normal

Dear Maintainer,
when starting pvpython I get the error message

sander at igel:~$ pvpython
Error converting executable file "/usr/bin/../lib/paraview/pvpython" to real path: No such file or directory

And that's all.  This is on an up-to-date Debian Testing machine.
I'd be happy to provide further information and more testing on request.
