That's a bit of a strange guide. It describes the process as tedious,
provides some useful tips about how to prepare that Ubuntu system, adds
some manual (possibly tedious) stages that deliberately circumvent existing
convenience automation, and then gives an unnecessarily complex call to
cmake that explicitly disable those convenience features that are off by
default.

Do follow the advice about using apt for this OS, but having prepared the
system, then follow the standard installation advice at
http://manual.gromacs.org/documentation/5.1.1/install-guide/index.html#quick-and-dirty-installation
and be happy :-)
