[gmx-users] configure gmx on sgi

[Marta Beatriz Caldentey]

Hello,

when I try to configure gromacs-3.2.1 on a sgi irix 6.5.22 machine I get 
the following error message:

c2 3# ./configure --enable-mpi --enable-shared --disable-float 
--program-suffix=_d

configure: error: linking to Fortran libraries from C fails
See `config.log' for more details.

In `config.log' I get:

....
configure:3839: mpicc -o conftest -g   conftest.c 
-L/usr/lib32/mips4/r10000 -L/usr/lib32/mips4 -L/usr/lib32 -lftn -lm >&5
ld: FATAL   12 : Expecting o32 objects: /usr/lib32/mips4/crt1.o is n32.
.....
configure:3868: result: unknown
configure:3880: error: linking to Fortran libraries from C fails
......

I'm new in compiling in irix and I don't know what it means.
I have already sucessfully installed fftw-2.1.5 with mpi and double 
precision.

Thanks in advance,
Marta
