Remove any Python, numpy, and cppunit, proj, Pyrex, and netcdf stuff you built 
by hand and switch to the Fedora packages. Use yum to install the packages:

yum install python python-devel numpy cppunit cppunit-devel proj proj-devel 
proj-nad Pyrex netcdf netcdf-devel

Note: You need the python-devel and cppunit-devel packages to get the header 
files for those packages. This is what I meant by the development packages.

After installing these packages, then reconfigure and rebuild petsc, nemesis, 
pyrexembed (CIG version), FIAT, pythia, spatialdata, and then PyLith.

Remember to configure spatialdata and pylith with --with-testing. To run the 
unit tests, do a "make check" after "make install".
