[Rivet] No rivet and agile command found

[christopher at particle.uni-karlsruhe.de]

Hi Andy,

in the attachment you can find the log file of the installation
of Rivet 1.1.2.

Now the SVN version, with the PYTHONPATH variable correctly set,
seems to work. The command rivet is working.

Thank you very much for your help, now I will try to run some analysis
to see if there are any other problems. I apologize for making you lose
your time.

Thank you again.

Best

Christopher
