[Rivet] Small problem with the latest versionDavid Yallup dyallup at cern.chThu Aug 18 15:22:15 BST 2016
Hello, I don't know if this has been reported but something I thought I should flag this up. I was helping someone set up the latest rivet install v2.5.1 on an SL6 machine, where the default python is v2.6. Everything compiles "correctly", however when attempting to run rivet-mkhtml, it errors with the following: ERROR: required program 'latex' could not be found. Exiting... This is something that came in with rivet 2.5.0 I think (I've had earlier versions of rivet running on the same architecture), and is solved by using python2.7 (I think its something new in make-plots that doesnt play nicely with old python versions), but you then need to compile with python 2.7, so I'm wondering if compilation of rivet should be stopped if you are using python <=v2.6 as we do with the c++11 headers now, or enforce some check on whatever feature make-plots is trying to use. This is a fairly niche problem but I thought it was worth mentioning Cheers, David
