[yt-users] Installing yt on Xsede Smic and Comet

Hi Nathan,

Aha! "yt" executable did not exist! The installation went smoothly so I did
not even think about checking the log, but there were actually some error
messages related to Cython. I realized that a system python module was
automatically loaded upon login, so I unloaded it and reinstalled yt. It is
working now. Thank you!

Best,
Yuan
