[Rivet] problems running rivet

[Andy Buckley]

Hi Hannes,

You seem to be running LHC and Tevatron analyses on the same HepMC data
file: well, they can't both have the correct beam type! From the text
output, the ATLAS one is not compatible with the supplied beams and is
removed. If you supply it with pp events at the appropriate energy, it
will hopefully work as expected. MC_GENERIC has no beam type requirements.

The segfault after forced analysis removal is sadly normal... not a nice
behaviour, but it relates to a known and usually quite innocuous
internal memory handling issue which will be fixed in the next major
version after 1.5.0.

Andy

PS. You can send the text from the terminal: we don't need a screenshot!
