When I have MPI installed and configure DOLFIN with either PETSc or Trilinos, I get a bunch of errors when plot() is called (see below). A plot appears as expected, followed by the error messages. Looks like a Viper issue (?).

As far as I know, there shouldn't be any MPI calls in viper/VTK. I have
absolutely no idea what causes this error.

Did you compile VTK with MPI? Could you report the output of this commando on
the shared vtk-libraries:
objdump -R /usr/lib/libvtk*.so  | grep MPI


I didn't build VTK. I'm using the package. From objdump I get

>objdump -R /usr/lib/libvtk*.so  | grep MPI
