Was this built from source or binaries downloaded from paraview.org?

Also try disbaling "Use Offscreen Rendering for screenshots" from Edit |Settings dialog (Render View page).

I have tried only downloaded binary packages.

Great, turning this off makes saving of screenshots to work.
Thank you, this solve my problem.

However, why it crash with offscreen rendering? If I understand it well, this option force software rendering using Mesa library. I assume that you provide your own mesa library in binary package. Maybe there can be a compatibility problem with Mesa installed in my system.
.. Just guessing what can be wrong and have no idea how to confirm it.
