Besides the fact that the port's version of paraview (2.2.4) is quite outdated (paraview is actually version 3.6.1(!) paraview does not work properly and results in the following error: 

ParaView error: InitializeTcl failed
Tk_Init error: Can't find a usable tk.tcl in the following directories: 
    /usr/local/lib/paraview-2.4/tk8.4

This probably means that tk wasn't installed properly.

>How-To-Repeat:
Install out of date paraview from ports and try using it.
