Actually, this is not entirely true. Gromacs has been available in
Debian for a long time now, and is also available in the Ubuntu Universe
repository. The current version in Debian stable is 3.3.3 and 4.0.3 in
unstable; in Ubuntu 3.3.3 except in the upcoming 9.04 release 4.0.3.

Also, Gromacs has been included in Fedora and Fedora EPEL since
November. The current version in Fedora is 4.0.4.

SuSe seems to contain Gromacs 3.3.1.

This means Gromacs is found on all major distributions (although the
version in SuSe is outdated).
