The quickest solution to no longer have to be bothered by this kind of buggy warning messages, should be to do these steps as follows:

1. Add the repository that has got the fixed ParaView 3.98 for Ubuntu 12.04 and 12.10, by running:
   
   Code:

   sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gladky-anton/paraview

2. Then update apt-get's cache and upgrade ParaView:
   
   Code:

   sudo apt-get update
   sudo apt-get install paraview

3. Then uninstall the ParaView 3.12.0 version that is provided for OpenFOAM:
   
   Code:

   sudo apt-get remove paraviewopenfoam3120

4. Add an alias command to your "~/.bashrc" file:
   
   Code:

   alias paraFoam='paraFoam -builtin'

5. Start a new terminal window and try running paraFoam from within your case folder.
