Fixed.

Duh, much simpler. Thanks.

The problem is that GROMACS has a big bunch of independent analysis tools that
users need, all of which must be in the system path.

I renamed highway, luck, sigeps and wheel to g_highway, g_luck, g_sigeps and
g_wheel. I used autoreconf to regenerate the scripts.

I don't have access to the buildsystem yet, so I can't check whether it works
on F10.

> * Duplicate files

Thanks, fixed.
