Dear Rivet experts,
I tried yetserday to install the latest Rivet on LXPLUS, for its
upgraded --ignore-beams handling. Initially I just logged in without
presetting anything.
I followed the instructions from the site, but ran in trouble,
something about c++11 if I remember correctly..

After trying to set the following (fairly random, admittedly), things
compiled and run smoothly (my plugin needs root also):
source /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/releases/LCG_85/gcc/4.9.3/x86_64-slc6/setup.sh
source /cvmfs/sft.cern.ch/lcg/releases/LCG_85/Python/2.7.10/x86_64-slc6-gcc49-opt/Python-env.sh
source /afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/app/releases/ROOT/5.34.00/x86_64-slc6-gcc46-opt/root/bin/thisroot.sh

Hope this is useful information, perhaps other users run into similar
problems. Maybe the make file can be adjusted, or some guiding message
on the site?


Kind regards,
Merijn
