Hi Christopher,

Looks to me like you didn't build Rivet and AGILe with the Python
modules needed for the agile-runmc and rivet commands: these aren't
enabled by default with the released versions. You should pass
"--enable-pyext" to the configure commands to build these modules.

Alternatively you might consider using the SVN head version, which
includes a lot of other improvements, should build the Python modules by
default, and is anyway a better choice at the moment if you want to
write your own analyses.
