Dear,

I was trying to install rivet based on the instructions in the rivet
manual. When I come to this step:
./rivet-bootstrap --install-agile --prefix=<localdir>

I get this error message:
configure: WARNING: Boost header directory was not found
configure: error: Boost is required

I installed boost and followed the instructions here
https://rivet.hepforge.org/trac/wiki/GettingStartedForDevelopers

and still get the same message. I also couldn't use this line
--with-boost-incpath=path_to_my_local_directory/include/boost-X_Y

where and how should I use it exactly?

Regards,
