Bug#959387: [Re] paraview-dev: missing cmake vtk modules in the dev package, cannot use

[Jakob Meng]

Found another problem with the ParaView source package in Debian Sid.
The Salsa GitLab Repo of ParaView has Git LFS Pointers, e.g. [1]. The
source tarball paraview_5.7.0.orig.tar.xz [2] that has been uploaded to
Debian Sid does not have the binary files but the raw Git LFS pointers
instead! For example, file
VTK/ThirdParty/vtkm/vtkvtkm/vtk-m/data/tornado.vec in the source tarball is:

version https://git-lfs.github.com/spec/v1
oid sha256:dca8105bf888e67a9fe476a563d69ac708925aec519814fb520c6057e5ca0a1f
size 1327116
