[Rivet] installation of Rivet

[Debottam Bakshi Gupta]

Hi Deepak,

It would be great if you provide me with some details because I am doing
this for the 1st time, please see the following.

*
I did

  cd /scratch/rivet
  wget http://rivet.hepforge.org/hg/bootstrap/raw-file/1.9.0/rivet-bootstrap-lcg
  chmod +x rivet-bootstrap-lcg

Where Fastjet was installed when I ran

./rivet-bootstrap-lcg

Q?? which should I use version 1.9.0 or  2.2.1. In case of 2.2.1 if I need
to install Fastjet separately and how?

**

When I installed version 1.9.0 I tried to use this command

> agile-runmc --help

And it could not find agile-runmc command

Q?? do I need to download any dependencies for this. because I simply want
run at the beginning the following code given in
https://rivet.hepforge.org/trac/wiki/FirstRivetRun.

> mkfifo fifo.hepmc
> agile-runmc Pythia6:425 --beams=LHC:7000 -n 500000 -o fifo.hepmc &
> rivet --analysis=ANALYSIS_NAME fifo.hepmc


Could you just let me know what are the dependencies I need to install to
run the above code??

Thanks,
Debo.
