These libraries do not have sonames, thus I reckon they are not a part
of public API. On the other hand, reference libraries,

libOpenMMAmoebaReference.so
libOpenMMDrudeReference.so
libOpenMMRPMDReference.so

are provided in libopenmm-plugins binary package (>= 7.5.1+dfsg-1) at
/usr/lib/${DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH}/openmm/plugins.

If this would be of use, libOpenMM{Amoeba,Drude,RPMD}.so could be
provided at /usr/lib/${DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH}/openmm, as
/usr/lib/${DEB_HOST_MULTIARCH} is reserved for libraries with sonames.

Best,
Andrius
