[gmx-users] segmentation fault in g_anaeig

[Tsjerk Wassenaar]

Hi Inon,

Please be as complete as you can when posting questions. You've
omitted the (probably) most important piece of information: what
version are you using? (You might also want to include platform, OS,
compiler, etc.). Note that just a few days ago it was already reported
on this list that g_anaeig of version 3.3.3 gave a segfault.

Cheers,

Tsjerk
