[Rivet] New Rivet bootstrap scriptFrank Siegert frank.siegert at cern.chMon Jan 27 20:13:10 GMT 2014
Dear Riveters, As discussed heatedly all day now, the Rivet 2.x installation bootstrap script and installation instructions needed an overhaul. I have committed a new script and restructured the installation instructions and would be happy about any feedback: https://rivet.hepforge.org/trac/wiki/GettingStarted (Note, that there is also an undocumented and neatly separated INSTALL_RIVETDEV option, for everybody who wants to install the development version of Rivet. This also includes an installation of cython, which at best can be called fragile, in particular in case you ever want to update your Rivet working copy without running the bootstrap script again. So if you have the chance, do install cython with your system package manager in advance.) Cheers, Frank PS: Andy, I'm copying the rivetenv.sh scripts to INSTALL_PREFIX instead of BUILD_PREFIX now, hope that's ok? PPS: Anybody mind if we remove https://rivet.hepforge.org/trac/wiki/ManualInstallation and just refer to the bootstrap script as instructions?
