Hi Andy,

I've got the same problem on my laptop. If I start python directly and
try to import rivet, I get the following error:

--------------------------------------------------------
$ python
Python 2.5.2 (r252:60911, Dec  5 2008, 10:49:05) 
[GCC 4.2.3] on linux2
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import rivet
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/home/hoeth/Dokumente/MCnet/rivet/installation/local/lib64/python2.5/site-packages/rivet.py", line 7, in <module>
    import _rivet
ImportError: /home/hoeth/Dokumente/MCnet/rivet/installation/local/lib/libRivet.so.5: undefined symbol: _ZN5Rivet21createAnalysisFactoryEv
>>> 
--------------------------------------------------------

_ZN5Rivet21createAnalysisFactoryEv is Rivet::createAnalysisFactory().
Could you please have a look into this issue?

I'm using

  rivet r1436
  gcc 4.2.3
  swig 1.3.33
  python 2.5.2

Thanks,

   Hendrik
