[Rivet] Boost version

Hi Lars,

Sorry if I didn't make this clear in my first email ...

Rivet compile and install worked fine.  I install it in /usr/local

The problems, both AIDA and boost, come when I want to compile and link some new external code against it.  In particular, I write a Herwig::AnalysisHandler that creates and calls a Rivet::AnalysisHandler.  It is when compiling my code that it looks in /usr/local/include for the AIDA and boost directories and does not find them.

Mike.

Hello Mike
I have renamed the include/AIDA subdirectory to AIDA_bak on my laptop
and then done the installation of Rivet-1.1.0. It does install without any 
problem. So it seems not to need the AIDA direcdtory in the 
installation/include path.

I could also execute rivetgun,
though Fortran Herwig did end gracefully without producing any event 
(presumably the dummy time subroutine feature), but in principle
it is working.

I found also some boost libraries on my laptop like e.g.: 
libboost_date_time.so.1.32.0 from which I would conclude version 1.32

I was having a lot of installation problems and traced it to the fact that I have boost 1.33 on my system - some of the headers rivet needs are missing.  Is it enough to copy across the contents of the /include/boost/ directory that comes with rivet, or do I need to upgrade my installation to the most recent version?  This should probably be mentioned in GettingStarted.
