[molpro-user] Compiling molpro 2002.6 on IBM Power 5

Hi there

We are considering buying a new Power 5 system and are trying run some  
benchmark calculations. However, I am struggling to compile molpro.

When I type

./configure

I get "Sorry, but I cannot find a valid GNU make using any of the commands  
gnumake GNUmake gmake make"

There is an appropriate version of gmake installed. This is the same  
version as on our Itanium2 systen, which compiled with no problems.

gmake -v
GNU Make 3.80

PARTICULAR PURPOSE.


If I remove the gmake checking lines in configure I get the following.

If you believe the error is not your fault,
please email molpro-support at tc.bham.ac.uk with this error, specifying  
operating
system type and version, compiler type and version and any other
information which would be useful. Exiting ...

Any help compiling, or comparative benchmarks of a Power 5 system (to  
either a 2.4GHz Opeteron, 1.6 GHz Itanium2, or 3.2GHz Pentium 4, or  
similar) would be most appreciated.



Cheers
