Hi Luca,

Thanks for pointing out this bug, an error crept into the code for
loading the remediation dictionary. I've fixed the bug and checked in
the changes, so the next nightly installer will have the fix.

You are correct that pdb_remediatior is not available in the last
release (1.7.1-743), as it was added more recently. It is present in
recent nightly Phenix builds.

If you have any further problems, please let me know.

Thanks,
Jeff
