[gmx-users] Gromacs installation: cannot find LibXmu.la

[Andreas Kukol]

On SuseLinux 10.3 the command ./configure --enable-mpi works fine but make 
terminates at this point. Using the option --disable-shared did not change anything.

I would be grateful for any help.

Many thanks
Andreas

* Seems you are compiling with MPI support. You can install the MPI-
   enabled programs with suffixed names to have both MPI and non-MPI
   versions. This is useful e.g. on supercomputers where you usually
   cannot run MPI-linked programs on the login node.
   Set a suffix with e.g. --program-suffix=_mpi (or _mpi_d for double).
   You only need MPI for mdrun, so if you already have non-MPI stuff
   installed you can issue make mdrun; make install-mdrun.
