In order to prevent name clashes with other packages (GROMACS contains
e.g. binaries named luck, wheel, fortune, editconf and so on) some
binaries had to be renamed. The binaries are in /usr/bin.

In order to keep it simple, I renamed all binaries to begin with g_, so
grompp is g_grompp, and mdrun is g_mdrun. The naming adheres to the
naming of the analysis tools, and is quite quick to get used to.

Double precision binaries are suffixed _d. MPI binaries are suffixed
_mpi (_mpi_d for double precision).

Example:

g_mdrun (single precision)
g_mdrun_d (double precision)
g_mdrun_mpi (single precision, MPI)
g_mdrun_mpi_d (double precision, MPI)

You can list the files owned by e.g. the gromacs package with
$ rpm -ql gromacs
