As someone who is responsible for a multi-user facility that currently
operates CentOS 5.6 and uses version 12.0 of the Intel compilers, I'd like
to second Ross's notes about working to support older (AND STABLE)
systems. If I'm the only one running something this old, then I will admit
that the problem is mine and we will work to upgrade, but I suspect that is
not the case.


Also, it is probably relevant for me to note that somewhere between Jan 14
and today things have stopped building nicely for me. It appears that my
libfftw is out of date, which seems strange to me since this is something
that I believe configure checks. I wonder if the code requirements
increased without someone updating configure accordingly? Anyway, the most
obvious error I am seeing is that I do not have libfftw3.so.3 This
happens at the point when the build is working on cpptraj.

I'm attaching my build output for anyone who wishes to wade through it.


Cheers,
Brent
