It looks like ParaView was not built with success.
Since you did not state which Linux Distribution you're referring to, the quickest answer is that you try and have a look at the various (unofficial) installation instructions that can be found here: http://openfoamwiki.net/index.php/Installation/Linux/OpenFOAM-2.3.0

Please follow the source build instructions

carefully.

It appears that you did not successfully build ParaView before attempting the build of the reader modules.
