Hello Rebecca,

There were numerous memory overlap issues with tleap when AmberTools 1.4 was
first released that kind of lay dormant for a long time. Mengjuei fixed
these a while ago and created a bug fix that you need to apply. See
http://ambermd.org/bugfixes.html and navigate to AmberTools 1.4 and download
bugfix.all, apply it, and try again.

Moreover, that post on somewhereville.com is fairly outdated and many
instructions have changed. The link http://ambermd.org/ubuntu.html tells
you which packages you have to install from aptitude in order to install
Amber. After that, you can just follow the instructions in the manual to
compile AmberTools-1.4 (don't forget to apply bug fixes first).

Hope this helps,
Jason
