Ok, if you have somebody using it without major issues I'd say it should
get included.
One thing about README.source; I think if you do something fancy with
the original tarball, it would be best to supply a "get-orig-source"
script for the modifications.
I take you based you packaging on "jgromacs_v1_src.tgz"?
I just renamed the "source" directory inside the jgromacs tarball to
"jgromacs-1.0" here so far, and it build fine.
You wrote you removed jama, I think it is fine to keep it even if it is
not used in the build. Unless we have to remove it due to some
licensing issues, which I guess is not the case?
