[gmx-users] infelicity in installation of 4.0.2

[Martyn Winn]

Hi all,

I've compiled 4.0.2 from source on an EM64T machine running Ubuntu,
using ./configure --enable-shared
With all executables I've tried, I find:

mdw at ccp4v:~/gromacs/test_installation$ editconf
                         :-)  G  R  O  M  A  C  S  (-:

*** stack smashing detected ***: editconf terminated

                         :-)  G  R  O  M  A  C  S  (-:

                 Good ROcking Metal Altar for Chronical Sinners

                            :-)  VERSION 4.0.2  (-:

i.e. it only runs fine if I specify the full path. Searching the
archives, I found that this was reported in April 07, with a reply that
it will be fixed in 3.3.2

Nothing more recent came up, but apologies if I missed it. 

Cheers
Martyn
