[Rivet] Problem with rivet-bootstrap

[Kiran Joshi]

Hi Andy,

Thanks for fixing the AGILe tarball, I managed to install it without any further problems.

I've now got another problem when trying to run RIVET:

After I installed RIVET using the bootstrap, I ran rivet -h and everything seemed to be working correctly.
I then copied the environment variable settings to my .bashrc, but have not been able to get RIVET to run again.

When I try running rivet -h, I now get the message "rivet requires the 'rivet' python module".
In my .bashrc I have done:
export PYTHONPATH=.../RIVET/lib64/python2.4/site-packages
(as well as all the other paths in the rivetenv.sh file)

and I have tried source-ing rivetenv.sh again, but this doesn't solve the problem.

I realise that this is probably a problem with my specific set up, but any ideas would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Kiran

Thanks Kiran,

You're right, there was a problem with the AGILe tarball missing the
test directory. I've just patched this without a version change, as it's
a tiny detail but breaks the build of a release: if you delete the
downloads/AGILe-1.2.0.tar.gz tarball that the bootstrap has downloaded,
and run again, it should now work.

Thanks,
Andy
