tribchem: "Fixing" some issues in pymatgen.

[hongyi-zhao]

In README.md of tribchem, I noticed the following description here:

"Fixing" some issues in pymatgen

In our installation, we encountered an error due to partial incompatibility of the old Materials Project API within the pymatgen package. Here is the suggested fix. The user should go to line 177 of the file <path_virtual_env>/lib/python3.8/site-packages/pymatgen/ext/matproj.py and find:

self.preamble = SETTINGS.get("PMG_MAPI_ENDPOINT",https://materialsproject.org/rest/v2)

Then, replace the URL address with the legacy one: https://legacy.materialsproject.org/rest/v2

It bothers me. Is this a bug in pymatgen?

See here for the related discussion.
