Public bug reported:

In Ubuntu 20.04, ParaView (if installed from APT, version 5.7.0) does
not seem to rended any results and no errors are reported (neither in
ParaView nor in the terminal). It just shows an empty render view.

Downloading the precompiled binaries for the same version [1] seems to
work normally.

How to reproduce:
1. In Ubuntu 20.04, install ParaView from APT: `sudo apt install paraview`
2. Open any ParaView-compatible file (some examples shipped with the 
precompiled binaries)
3. Click "Apply" --> Normally the geometry should appear in the render view, 
but here nothing appears.

How to check the precompiled binaries:
1. Download and extract the same version of ParaView from the website [1]
2. Run `ParaView-5.7.0-MPI-Linux-Python3.7-64bit/bin/paraview`
3. Open an example from 
`ParaView-5.7.0-MPI-Linux-Python3.7-64bit/share/paraview-5.7/examples/`, e.g. 
`can.ex2`.
4. Click "Apply" --> The results render normally and a shape appears on the 
right of the screen.

If I remember correctly, this problem did not exist in Ubuntu 19.10.
