[gmx-developers] Gromacs 5.0-beta1 install fails on windows

[Szilárd Páll]

Thanks for the report!

Lesson: we should add the install step to the jenkins builds; added a
Redmine task for this (http://redmine.gromacs.org/issues/1396).

I suggest that you also add a bug with the brief description you provide.

Cheers,
