Cylinder1 = Cylinder();
CleantoGrid1 = CleantoGrid()
writer = servermanager.writers.XMLUnstructuredGridWriter(FileName="foo.vtu",
DataMode=2, Input=CleantoGrid1, CompressorType=1);
and you'll get a segfault. It does not occur when setting CompressorType=0. (BTW: I could not find a regression test that checks this.)
gdb reveals a null pointer dereference:
