Does the legacy API replace the modern API?

There is no new API (yet), the main thing the switch does is to install the header files.

I'm confused: why would you install this without any headers? It seems very odd for the default build to install things without the headers.

Primarily, the project provides a (suite of) command line tool(s).
Several libraries with various degrees of support are also bundled. One of them (libgmxapi) is enabled by default and installs
gmxapi/
headers. The oldest (libgromacs
) is primarily for internal use to support the command line tool(s). Some of its headers are available, optionally (thegromacs/
headers), but it is not well-supported for use by external software.
