Confusing error message when h5py isn't found #213

If I run RepeatMasker with "qsub", I get this error message: Species "..." is not known to RepeatMasker.

But if I run it without qsub, it works fine.

The reason, I think, is that h5py isn't found when I use qsub. It seems RepeatMasker swallows the error message from famdb.py: it would be good to show this message.

RepeatMasker version 4.1.5.
