[Rivet] Compiling Sacrifice against Pythia82xx

[James Monk]

Hi Andy,

indeed I am on this list, though it gets heavily filtered since it gets a moderate rate of spam ;)

You are right that I never made a tarball with the Pythia 8.2 compatibility.  I think my plan was to try and get something that worked with both versions, but currently only the svn head works for 8.2.  I will be debugging some LHE3 issues in the coming days anyway, so that provides an opportunity to sort this out

cheers,

James

The declaration of "map" with no type just sounds like a missing #include... perhaps because of C++ compiler/stdlib changes, and again maybe/probably sorted out in the trunk development. Hopefully James can help more specifically.
