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 This means Gromacs is found on all major distributions (although the version in SuSe is outdated). -- ------------------------------------------------------ Jussi Lehtola, FM, Tohtorikoulutettava Fysiikan laitos, Helsingin Yliopisto jussi.leht...@helsinki.fi, p. 191 50632 ------------------------------------------------------ Mr. Jussi Lehtola, M.
