[Rivet] Fwd: rivet not working on SUSE

The RIVET_ANALYSIS_PATH variable is used as a fallback for all the others... how strange. If both the local/lib64 and local/share/Rivet dirs were listed in that variable, the rest should be unnecessary. I wonder what is different about SUSE!

Thanks for the help, David. And glad you found a solution, Luca & Francesco.
