Hi
When I run  dssp alone with a .pdb file it works well. But when I run with
Gromacs as do_dssp it gives segmentation fault and does not do any
calculation except giving some intermediate files as follows.

Opening library file /usr/local/gromacs/share/gromacs/top/ss.map
Reading frame       0 time    0.000
Warning: if there are broken molecules in the trajectory file,
         they can not be made whole without a run input file


Back Off! I just backed up dd8G1JXX to ./#dd8G1JXX.1#
Segmentation fault
