[Rivet] Installation of Rivet in my home

Hello all,

I am trying to install Rivet in my home area, so I can change some details
in the script of compare-histos and make-plots.

However, when I follow the instructions and use the rivet-bootsrap script,
after all the process of installing it, and after I set up my environment
variables using the rivetenv.sh that it writes, it gives me the following
error in the compare-histos command:

(I was running rivet --help, compare-histos --help and make-plots --help
only to see if they were working):


[user at local RIVET]$ compare-histos --help

Traceback (most recent call last):
 File "/home/fladias/RIVET/bin/compare-histos", line 24, in ?
    from lighthisto import Histo, PlotParser
 File "/home/fladias/RIVET/lib64/python2.3/site-packages/lighthisto.py",
line 18
    for code,name in codepoint2name.iteritems()
      ^
SyntaxError: invalid syntax



Then I tried to configure and install by hand, and I have exaclty the same
error, and only with compare-histos, the other two I was testing kept the
same.

I am using the fastjets, HepMC ans Boost installed in the afs area.

Does anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

Thank you very much.

Best Regards

Flavia
