[CIG-SHORT] Pylith install eror

[Brad Aagaard]

Birendra,

Did you clean out any old PyLith builds that may be in the path? There 
are issues with distutils/merlin and Python 2.7 that prevent pythia from 
installing (infinite loop in a python function). The workaround is 
simply to remove merlin and then install pythia.
