This should get the most updated psutil version from the Python pypi repository,
unpack it, compile it and install it automatically.

Installing on Linux
===================
-Standard distutils installation steps should apply here. At the current time
-the Linux port of psutil does not require any C modules, so can be installed
-without need for a compiler using disutils:
+gcc is required and so the python headers. They can easily be installed by using
+the distro package manager. For example, on Ubuntu:
-install/build:
+ > sudo apt-get install python-dev
+
+Once done, you can install/build psutil with:
+
+ > python setup.py install
- > ./setup.py install
