[vtkusers] vtk import fails from python

I have vtk working now but from python 'import vtk' still fails.

Question: The README.txt within VTK/Wrappings/Python says I must set
the LD_LIBRARY_PATH and PYTHONPATH. Is that before compilation or
before using it?

Will the setup.py in the Python directory automatically be run by make
install or do I have to run it manually? Any other tips about getting
python and vtk working together? Or perhaps a set of instructions
somewhere?

Thanks!
