Compiling NAMD on Linux cluster

Hi,

I am trying to compile NAMD on Linux following the procedure:

Download TCL, FFTW, and plugins libraries:
  mkdir fftw; cd fftw
  wget http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/namd/libraries/fftw-linux.tar.gz
  tar xzf fftw-linux.tar.gz
  cd ..; mkdir plugins; cd plugins
  wget http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/namd/libraries/plugins-LINUX.tar.gz
  tar xzf plugins-LINUX.tar.gz
  cd ..; mkdir tcl; cd tcl
  wget http://www.ks.uiuc.edu/Research/namd/libraries/tcl-linux.tar.gz
  tar xzf tcl-linux.tar.gz

Unpack NAMD and matching Charm++ source code and enter directory:
  tar xzf NAMD_2.5_Source.tar.gz
  cd NAMD_2.5_Source
  tar xf charm.tar
  cd charm

Build and test the Charm++/Converse library:
  ./build charm++ net-linux -O -DCMK_OPTIMIZE=1
  cd net-linux/pgms/charm++/megatest/
  make pgm
  ./charmrun ++local +p4 ./pgm (also try running on multiple nodes)
  cd ../../../../..

Edit various configuration files:
  vi Make.charm (set CHARMBASE to .rootdir/charm or full path to charm)
  vi arch/Linux-i686.fftw (fix library name and path to files)
  vi arch/All-Unix.plugins (fix path to files)
  vi arch/Linux-i686.tcl (fix library version and path to TCL files)

Set up build directory and compile:
  ./config tcl fftw plugins Linux-i686-g++
  cd Linux-i686-g++
  make

But in the last step, I met a error, the error messeng is attached. Anyone
has any idea about that? Thanks.

Sincerely yours,

Xin Chen
