I installed the dependencies, cfitsio, CCfits, CLHEP, gsl and Healpix.
Then I went into galprop and ran
./configure.

That went fine.
On running make, I get the following error. Seems like it does not recognize some lines in the main galpropMain.cc file.
I'd appreciate any ideas on how to get around this. thanks:

On running make again, I am getting the following error:

Add "--enable-openmp" after "./configure" commond.

did you just run: ./configure ? nothing else?

The issues like reported above can be caused by installing all dependencies (Healpix, cfitsio, CLHEP, etc.) into the same directory (e.g., /usr/local).
To be safe, install all the dependencies into individual directories. This can be done by using the argument "--prefix=/path/to/package" when running "configure" for the dependencies.
After that, run "make" and "make install" for every dependency, so that the dependent library is installed into /path/to/package.
Then, when you run "configure" for GALPROP, use "--with-package=/path/to/package". You will need one of each for every dependency.
Run "./configure --help" to see the list of all packages.
The comment by lx9507 about "--enable-openmp" is correct, you need this flag to enable multi-threading in GALPROP.
