Installer broken with Python 2.7.1

[oldpatricka]

This is due to a problem with versions of virtualenv that are older than 1.5.1 (see http://bitbucket.org/ianb/virtualenv/src/eb94c9ebe0ba/docs/news.txt). You can fix this by updating the virtualenv bundled with Nimbus to 1.5.1:

You get the following error currently:

[nimbus@heplw26 nimbus]$ ./install /usr/local/nimbus/
NIMBUS_HOME /usr/local/nimbus
