Hi Peter,

Thus spake renkel at physics.smu.edu (renkel at physics.smu.edu):

you can instead of "--devmode" try "--rivet-version=1.2.0a0". This
should download a tarball which is almost current. We are about to
release a new stable version (1.2.0), and 1.2.0a0 is a beta version of
that. Should work fine for you.

Cheers,

     Hendrik
