Thank you so much for your response Christoph! 

when I do gmx -h on my cluster, I still see the following piece in my 
output: 

GROMACS:      gmx, version 2020.5

Executable:   /home/satyend/.local/bin/gmx

Data prefix:  /home/satyend/.local

Working dir:  /home/satyend

Command line:
  gmx -h 

Does this mean that there is something wrong with my installation of votca? 
Should I get a fresh copy of Gromacs which is less than 2020.5 (19.6 
perhaps)? 

I will get on with updating my gcc version and obtaining Eigen. 

Again, I really appreciate you taking the time to answer my questions!
