Dear All,



I am trying to install Rivet on my lxplus account at CERN.



I got the following error message when I executed this command:



[issever at lxplus434]~/build% ./rivet-bootstrap --install-agile --prefix=~/local
Getting http://www.hepforge.org/archive/rivet/Rivet-1.8.3.tar.gz

LCG area available: using LCG-built packages
Using LCG platform tag = x86_64-slc5-gcc41-opt
FastJet does not exist at path /afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/fastjet/3.0.3/x86_64-slc5-gcc41-opt. You may wish to use the --ignore-lcgext option
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "./rivet-bootstrap", line 510, in ?
    sys.exit(1)
SystemExit: 1



An error has occurred while bootstrapping Rivet or one of its dependencies. Sorry!
Please contact the Rivet developers at rivet at projects.hepforge.org<mailto:rivet at projects.hepforge.org>, with a description of your problem, a copy of this script and any error trace that may have appeared and we'll try to get it fixed as soon as possible. Thanks for your help!



Shall I just ignore the lcg external packages? But I would like to use fastjet for example. Can you please suggest a solution?



Best Regards,

   Cigdem
