Yes, I can confirm that. Please, indicate it next time.

We do not know, why the upstream decided to use a patched VTK-source.
And I am not really sure, if it is even possible to replace it by
packaged version
without producing a bunch of new bugs.
If it requires a rewriting of a half of paraview, who can do it?
All previous versions of paraview included VTK, and it was not a problem.
Why should 3.10 solve it?

If you mean, that paraview-python and python-vtk are conflicting,
well... it is a topic for
new m/w bug.

I just needed an information about 640488. Sorry, I did not know that.

Bye

Anton
