[Rivet] Installing rivet on SL5

[Eike von Seggern]

Hi,

I'm trying to install rivet 1.1.3 on x86-64-slc5-gcc43-opt.  I've
checked out the 1.1.3 tag from svn and called autoreconf -iv

After that I used the following to configure:

$ CC=gcc43 CXX=g++43 ./configure
 --prefix=/scratch/zn/lustre/atlas/vseggern/local-sl5/ 
 --with-lcgtag=x86-64-slc5-gcc43-opt
 --with-boost=/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/Boost/1.39.0_python2.5/x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt
 --with-boost-incpath=/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/Boost/1.39.0_python2.5/x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt/include/boost-1_39
 --with-hepmc=/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/HepMC/2.05.00/x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt
 --with-fastjet=/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/fastjet/2.4.1/x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt
 --with-gsl=/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/GSL/1.10/x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt

but compiling the python extension fails:

Removing rivet.py and rivet_wrap.cc in pyext/ does not fix this but only
changes the error:

[a lot more "$self was not declared" errors from other locations and some other errors]

Has anyone an idea what I'm missing here?
