Dear Gromacs users, I m aiming to install gromacs 4.5.5 package in in linux Fedora 18. I have updated the needed compilers and downloaded the fftw-3.3.2.tar.gz and gromacs4.5.5.tar.gz
I have followed these commands to install: $ tar -zxvf fftw-3.3.2/ $ cd fftw-3.3.2/ $ ./configure --prefix /home/safa/programs/fftw-3.3.2 --enable-threads --enable-sse2 --enable-shared $ make $ make install $ cd $ tar zxvf gromacs-4.5.5.tar.gz $ cd gromac-4.5.5/ $../configure --prefix /home/safa/programs/gromacs-4.5.5 LDFLAGS="-L/home/safa/fftw-3.3.2/lib" CPPFLAGS="-I/home/safa/programs/fftw-3.3.2/include" --disable-float When I wrote the last command I got this error. checking build system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu checking host system type... x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu checking for a BSD-compatible install... /usr/bin/install -c checking whether build environment is sane... yes checking for a thread-safe mkdir -p... /usr/bin/mkdir -p checking for gawk... gawk checking whether make sets $(MAKE)... yes checking how to create a ustar tar archive... gnutar checking for cc... cc checking for C compiler default output file name... a.out checking whether the C compiler works... yes checking whether we are cross compiling... no checking for suffix of executables... checking for suffix of object files... o checking whether we are using the GNU C compiler... yes checking whether cc accepts -g... yes checking for cc option to accept ISO C89... none needed checking for style of include used by make...
