[Rivet] problems with rivet 2.6.0

[Andy Buckley]

Hi Hannes,

Thanks, I can reproduce this. Looks like it was always a dodgy bit of code that treated the downloaded HepData tarball as a string... but I'm not sure why it has only now started to fall over. I've just fixed it for version 2.6.1, but here's a replacement version of the rivet-mkanalysis script that should solve the problem.
