ParaView is not ready to move to the best of my knowledge. My hope was
to leave it at 4 (but changing to 5 is easy). The next release of VTK
should hopefully default to using the new rendering code, along with
possibly Qt 5 (ParaView can still modify), but I think we should avoid
this change just before the release. The distro maintainers can decide
what is best for their distros.

If others think differently please let us know.

Thanks,

Marcus
