[Eric Pettersen]

Hi Jitendra,

Thanks for reporting this problem. If you get the daily build then the specific thing you are doing (distance from one atom to a centroid) will work. What won't work is the distance from a centroid to multiple atoms -- which is supposed to report the minimum, maximum, and mean distances.

Fixed in both the daily build and the 1.6 release candidate.
