<br>
Ok, thanks for confirming. I tried it myself and reproduced the problem.<br>
<br>
The quick fix, I think, will be to use an even earlier version of<br>
FastJet, since the installation of 3.0.6 in the LCG area is (for some<br>
strange reason) only for SLC5! Here's a version of the command which<br>
should do that version change without you needing to edit anything:<br>
<br>
FASTJET_VERSION=3.0.3 ./rivet-bootstrap-lcg<br>
<br>
This worked for me, and I will update the bootstrap script to use 3.0.3<br>
by default. I've also asked the LCG applications manager what's going on<br>
with the FastJet builds, since the 3.1. series has been available for<br>
nearly a year and the latest SLC6 build is *three years* old!!! Maybe<br>
they have switched to putting their FastJet builds somewhere else,<br>
without leaving any signposts in the old directory... I'll find out.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Andy<br>
