[yt-users] error when running on cluster nodes

Hi Tsz Ka,

Usually these problems are seen when you're running the wrong version
of Python, or you're using some combination of C++ compilers.  I think
unless you're running on Compute Node Linux, following the suggestions
on the XT5 Installation page may not be necessary, and I am afraid I
don't recognize the machine (ppc64) you're running on.  Which machine
is it -- can you tell me a little more about it?  And do you know if
the compute nodes have a full installation stack?  And can you verify
you're using the correct python executable?

Best,

Matt
