Bug#821091: paraview: rendering with (at least) intel graphics broken

[Ansgar Burchardt]

Package: paraview
Version: 5.0.1+dfsg1-3
Severity: grave
Control: fixed -1 5.0.0+dfsg1-2

Since paraview version 5.0.1+dfsg1-3 rendering with (at least) intel
graphics is broken, see the attached "paraview-intel.png".

With the nvidia graphics driver, or with paraview 5.0.0+dfsg1-2 and
either intel or nvidia, the rendering works as expected, see the
attached "paraview-nvidia.png".  I only downgraded paraview and
paraview-python, all other package versions stayed the same.

I also noticed that the newer paraview version says "Legacy Rendering
Backend" in the window title; the older version did not do so.

I've filed this bug as "grave" as it makes paraview pretty unusable
with intel graphics.
