[Rivet] FastJet 2.4.x in Genser?

[Andy Buckley]

Hi Alberto,

We are finally gearing up to our Rivet 1.1.3 release (hopefully today) 
and I got some feedback that our bootstrap script fails on systems with 
/afs mounted (i.e. when it tries to use the LCG packages). I tested, and 
the problem is that for some reason FastJet 2.4.0 and 2.4.1 have never 
been installed in /afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/fastjet ... is that under 
Genser control, and could they be installed, please?

By the way, it would also be great if Boost could be installed in 
/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/Boost with the header directory 
"normalised" to the standard form (as Linux packagings of it do). 
Basically, this means putting a symlink in e.g.
/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/Boost/1.34.1/slc4_..../include to point the 
standard name .../include/boost at the non-standard 
.../include/boost-1_34_1/boost --- would that be possible? It would 
certainly make life easier for anyone wanting to use it!

Thanks, and I hope we can get this new version of Rivet into Genser very 
soon!

Andy
