Hi Cenk,
I have found on bug in parallel which I will put together a bugfix for
although I don't think it is what is causing the segfaults. I think the
segfaults are actually coming from deep inside MKL itself so it may actually
be a problem with a specific version of MKL - perhaps on specific hardware,
but I can't work out why it would only occur in parallel. I will explore
some more tomorrow and let you know. For the time being I think you will be
fine if you build a second version of amber without MKL and use that for
QMMM. It will be a little slower but it should pass all the test cases.
All the best
Ross
