Bug#766406: paraview: "Rescale to all timesteps" feature broken, but patch released

[Massimiliano Leoni]

Package: paraview
Version: 4.1.0+dfsg-3+b2
Severity: normal
Tags: patch

Dear Maintainer,
    I am using package paraview on debian testing, but the (very
handful) feaure "rescale data over all timesteps" is known to be
broken.
However, a patch was released on the official kitware forum, at
http://review.source.kitware.com/#/c/14052/
Could you please apply the patch and update the debian package?

You can confirm the bug by comparing the paraview package in the
debian
repos with the paraview binaries downloadable form paraview's
website.

Thanks
Massimiliano Leoni
