When I do "echo $PYTHONPATH", nothing shows up. How is $PYTHONPATH set? I thought it should be configured automatically by cmake and make. Correct?

I still cannot see the block on GRC

I'm assuming you're using ubuntu then.

Check your python path
echo $PYTHONPATH

and ensure that you see the howto folder located there in the dist-packages

No, it's an environment variable.  A Linux shell thing. 

PYTHONPATH should be set to include the place where the installer installed the Python modules.

Setting users environment variables is unrelated to building software.

I usually set mine in my .bashrc:

PYTHONPATH=.:$HOME/bin:/usr/local/lib/python2.7/site-packages:/usr/local/lib/python2.7/dist-packages
PYTHONPATH=$PYTHONPATH:/usr/local/lib64/python2.7/site-packages:/usr/local/lib64/python2.7/dist-packages
export PYTHONPATH
