[Rivet] cannot use rivet-mkhtml and make-plots

[roberto franceschini]

Hello,
 I needed imagemagick, which was not installed on this machine. Now it
works!
Thanks for helping.
Roberto

PS
Have I missed it (maybe because I got rivet from the big package of Herwig7
bootstrap) or is written somewhere that Latex and imagemagick are needed?
