You should avoid compiling software yourself, because that beats the
whole idea of having a) a distribution that has ready-to-use software
and b) a package management system that makes upgrades possible.

In Fedora
# yum -y install grace

In RHEL, first enable the Fedora EPEL repository with
# rpm -Uvh \
http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/epel/5/i386/epel-release-5-3.noarch.rpm
and then install grace with
# yum -y install grace

Then you can run grace with $ xmgrace

If you are using a vanilla RedHat system, the yum method will work.
However, if you are using a prepackaged clustering environment (like ROCKS)
you may break it.

All you nee to know to install grace is the location of the headers and
libraries for Lesstiff.  You then supply them to grace as a part of the
./configure command and things should go smoothly.

It's unfortunate the person who wrote and maintains grace is unwilling to
provide this information to the people that want to use grace.  However, you
can't stop people from being jerks.  That's why I'd prefer gromacs use a
different plotting package like gnuplot.

Agreed, although it is straightforward to use gnuplot anyway. See
