Dear Rivet Authors, I am just towards the end of my second hour running trying to install Rivet 2.0. Admittedly, I am not half as geeky and nerdy as you are, so I accepted/anticipated that this would take me an hour. But, please, can you explain the rationale why you use cython, yaml, yoda, boost, fastjet & hepmc (I am sure i missed some!) in a non-trivial way with non-trivial version specifications without providing a meaningful installation guide? You certainly do not want the common people to use your code - is that it? If you think this helps the user base you are mightily mistaken. If you think I will continue to advertise your code, you're delusional - this is next to uninstallable as it stands now, with a pretty superficial installation help. Best wishes Frank
