mgv2.6.1 madspin error

Hi,

Yeah I discover that couple of days ago.
This is already fixed in 2.6.2 that will be release early January.
I have also added some unitest and acceptance test to avoid such problem to occur again in the future.

Sorry for that,

Olivier

New question #661988 on MadGraph5_aMC@NLO:
https://answers.launchpad.net/mg5amcnlo/+question/661988

Hi Olivier and Madgraph team

I've been running several test samples with the new released MGv2.6.1

I haven't changed any of the card infos.

Only thing I did was

generate p p > t t~ [QCD]
with MadSpin on (default madspin card decaying t, t~)

Please take a look at this
