[Rivet] Rivet install problem

Hi,

This means python cannot find the modules.

Check in your installation directory for a directory containing the *.py-files.
For me it is in ~/local/lib64/python2.4/site-packages
In the rivetenc.sh is a only lib (not lib64) noted for PYTHONPATH. Changing this should solve your problem.

To me it's not clear, when a lib is placed in lib or in lib64 (yeah, the name is the game... maybe)

Cheers,
Daniel
