[CIG-SHORT] pylith install error

Hi Charles

Thanks for the input. I also increased the slip-weakening-parameter, i.e. the critical slip from 5 mm to 5 m and now it converges immediately to zero solution. I had used the critical slip of 5 mm for a much finer mesh of the same problem and didn't raise it for this coarse mesh. 
I also decreased the ksp_rtol from 1e-10 to 1e-15, snes_rtol  from 1e-10 to 1e-12, and snes_atol from 1e-9 to 1e-10.

Thanks for the help.
Birendra

 Hi Birendra,
 
 Your gravitational stresses,
 initial stresses, and traction BC are balancing now (you can
 see this by turning off the fault).  As far as why the
 fault solution isn’t converging, I’m not sure.  I
 haven’t been through your parameters in detail. 
 Actually, I just looked again at your parameters, and
 noticed you have the normalizer length scale set to 1 m,
 which is much smaller than any of your element sizes.  Try
 increasing that to 100 m.
 
 Cheers,
 Charles

 rightboundary spatialdb accordingly (files attached), I
 should get zero displacement solution? I don't get that.
