Hi,

I'm new about GROMACS source code. Therefore, sorry if my question is basic.
I'm collaborating to project where we're developing  an Evolutionary
Integration in GROMACS.

Today, I ran git pull command for update my local repository. When I
executed make command I receive the message: error: dereferencing pointer to
incomplete type
The complete error message can be seen at end of this email.

I fixed it when I updated the file src/kernrel/repl_ex.c its line 57. I
added the word gmx_repl_ex after typedef struct. My final source can be seen
in [1]

My question is. Did I fix correctly?

Thanks in advance,
