Dear Rivet developers,

I am trying to install rivet with the script "rivet-bootstrap" but 
somehow it does not working due to the Sherpa libs(see below). As we 
talked with Dr. Buckley last week(see below), it should have been worked 
when it is changed "DEVELOPERMODE=yes" in order to fix this problem(to 
take into account new Agile-1.1.2 version) but still the same error 
shows all the time in cern compilation. My question is course how can i 
properly installed rivet including Sherpa and can i installed this rivet 
my personal computer or institute cluster. I would be very happy if 
someone clearify this installation process how can i handle?

Kind Regards,
Altan
