[Rivet] problem with ATLAS_2014_I1306294

This looks like a problem with the analysis code rather than the Rivet
version -- if you could compile the code with your version of
rivet-buildplugin then it should be usable... or at least as usable as
possible.

I see that in the version of this analysis that Holger put into Rivet 2,
the line referring to a "remaining final state" has been replaced with
something else... I guess that this was needed to make the code supplied
by ATLAS actually work, but Holger knows better what went on there. As
it says in the config area README file, we can't vouch for the
correctness of any of those as-is contributed codes -- they often need
some degree of fixing when we merge them into the official Rivet
releases. If you want this one to work, probably you need to do some
debugging... sorry!

Despite the Rivet version probably not being the cause of this problem,
1.8.3 is *very* old. It's not even the final version of Rivet 1, let
alone Rivet 2 which has now been the production version for about 2
years! So please upgrade to 2.2.1... and then you'll even have this
analysis built-in, in bugfixed and validated form.
