I'm having problems installing Gromacs. I have linux redhat 64 bit. I was installing gromacs 4.5.5 with fftw 3.3. I followed the installation instructions and all went well until the "make install" command, when I executed it I got this error:

*What to do?*

This problem (and its potential solution) is described in the installation instructions:
