Hi Chandra,

As Erik mentioned, you can use virtualenv to setup isolated Python
environments in your $HOME folder. Here's a quick overview of how to
do that without root privileges to install anything:

# Download the standalone virtualenv Python script:
$ wget https://raw.github.com/pypa/virtualenv/master/virtualenv.py

# Create a virtual Python environment for StarCluster:
$ python virtualenv.py --distribute starcluster

# "Activate" the new virtual environment:
$ source starcluster/bin/activate

# Install StarCluster:
$ easy_install StarCluster

I'll update the install instructions to include this method as well.
Note that you will need a compiler in order to successfully build and
install PyCrypto so you might need to check with your sys admin if
this is not available...

HTH,

~Justin
