Hi there,
I am trying to install gromacs-4.5.4 on my local machine with FC, I tried following set of commands:

-----------------------------to install FFTW at location root/Desktop/Vivek/calcitonin/FFTW ./configure --prefix=/root/Desktop/Vivek/calcitonin/FFTW --enable-long-double

Why enable long double?

make
make install
--------------------
export LDFLAGS=-L/root/Desktop/Vivek/calcitonin/FFTW/lib
export CPPFLAGS=-I/root/Desktop/Vivek/calcitonin/FFTW/include
-------------------to install gromacs at location /root/Desktop/Vivek/calcitonin/GROMACS-4.5.4
./configure --prefix=/root/Desktop/Vivek/calcitonin/GROMACS-4.5.4/
make
make install
--------------------------------

and end up with following error
------------------------
/usr/bin/ld: /usr/local/lib/libfftw3f.a(plan-dft-c2r-3d.o): relocation R_X86_64_32 against `a local symbol' can not be used when making a shared object; recompile with -fPIC
/usr/local/lib/libfftw3f.a: could not read symbols: Bad value
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make[2]: *** [libmd.la <http://libmd.la>] Error 1

make[1]: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/root/Desktop/Vivek/calcitonin/gromacs-4.5.4/src'
make: *** [install-recursive] Error 1
-----------------------------------------

Does anybody have any idea regarding this error. Any insight and suggestion are appreciated.

Notice that you are picking up FFTW from /usr/local/lib, because your intended FFTW is not configured correctly for use with GROMACS. That FFTW is unsuitable for another reason. See http://www.gromacs.org/Downloads/Installation_Instructions, in particular for how to deal with the "recompile with -fPIC" issue.
