[CIG-SHORT] compiling PyLith

[Brad Aagaard]

Antonio,

We highly recommend new users install via the binary until they are 
comfortable using PyLith.  You do not need to run "configure" if you use 
the binary. Simply untar the tarball and run "source setup.sh" at the 
top level PyLith directory. See the installation instructions in the 
PyLith manual for details.

Regards,
Brad
