[Rivet] LHAPDF and lcg insallation of Rivet 2.0.0

[Andy Buckley]

Hi Cigdem,

I built Pythia8 (and the Sacrifice interface) the "quick way" for the
tutorial, i.e. it uses HepMC but not LHAPDF. I can try to upgrade it,
but my time is really short and I'm not sure I will be able to find time
to work that out this week... maybe someone else on this list can give
me some quick instructions and I'll update that installation.

The alternative way is to build it yourself: this is pretty simple, but
if building on lxplus and wanting to use the LCG installation of LHAPDF
you will need to find it, get the paths correct, etc. Not hard, I think,
but it might require a little trial and error: maybe someone on this
list already has a step-by-step guide?

Andy
