[Rivet] New AGILe and Rivet versions to test

[Anton Karneyeu]

Hi Andy,

tests are finished fine, there are no any serious problems. Just want to 
mention a few issues:

- Two patches are necessary to build Rivet on macosx 10.6 platform:

Patch to build LHCB_2011_I917009.cc:
https://svnweb.cern.ch/trac/GENSER/browser/GENSER3/pkgsrc/MCGenerators/rivet/trunk/patches/patch-ba?rev=7878

Patch to build pyext:
https://svnweb.cern.ch/trac/GENSER/browser/GENSER3/pkgsrc/MCGenerators/rivet/trunk/patches/patch-pe?rev=7878


- There are still "Could not determine lifetime" error messages from 
LHCB_2010_S8758301 analysis. Please, see attached email for original 
issue report. It was agreed to mask particles which leads to error 
messages, but probably forgotten to be implemented in the analysis code.


- There is mismatch in the field LogY of PLOT section of .dat files 
produced from reference .aida file and corresponding .plot file. For 
example for ATLAS_2010_S8894728:

   contents of
 
/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/MCGenerators_hepmc2.06.05/rivet/1.8.0alpha0/x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt/share/Rivet/ATLAS_2010_S8894728.plot

   and contents of *.dat files from
     aida2flat -s 
/afs/cern.ch/sw/lcg/external/MCGenerators_hepmc2.06.05/rivet/1.8.0alpha0/x86_64-slc5-gcc43-opt/share/Rivet/ATLAS_2010_S8894728.aida

See also attached script logy.sh which demonstrate the issue on lxplus.
The last issue is not specific for Rivet 1.8.0a, was also present in 
previous versions.

Cheers,
Anton
