Hi there,
Just a quick question before I start doing the work involved;
would RPMFusion ship openmotif? More details on why it's not in Fedora
(anymore) are on https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/RexDieter/openmotif

It's a good candidate for rpmfusion-nonfree, sure.

+1 for nonfree

It is still
distributable and should be just fine for non-free repo.

No, as lestiff
have been seen as complete replacement of openmotif.
That was previously asked on the preliminary "merge repo" mailing list
some time ago.
Now I expect that this problem doesn't comes from nowhere and there is
a real case behind.
It can be allowed an exception based on this case only.

It could be in rpmfusion non-free, if it can be packaged in a way as to
not conflict with lesstif in *anyway*. I do not know what the default soname
for openmotif's build libs are, if those conflict with lesstif soname's this
is going to be very tricky.

Comparing F10 lesstif and PlanetCCRMA/F10 openmotif, the library sonames
are not a problem:
$ rpm -q --provides openmotif
libMrm.so.4()(64bit)
libUil.so.4()(64bit)
libXm.so.4()(64bit)
openmotif = 2.3.0-0.3.fc10.ccrma
openmotif(x86-64) = 2.3.0-0.3.fc10.ccrma
$ rpm -q --provides lesstif
libDtPrint.so.1()(64bit)
libMrm.so.2()(64bit)
libUil.so.2()(64bit)
libXm.so.2()(64bit)
lesstif = 0.95.0-26.fc10
However, the -devel packages conflict with each other (library .so
files, header files, manpages) and fixing that would not be easy.

Not fully sure, but conflicting devel might be a advantage and not a
disadvantage in this case, as it will make it obvious during compiling
things which of the two is needed and used.

You could stuff the headers into /usr/include/openmotif and the libraries
into /usr/lib(64)/openmotif/devel (or just /usr/lib(64)/openmotif if it
isn't used for anything else), see how we're handling KDE 3 and 4
coexisting.

Thank you for the answers, all of you. I'll be working on a package and
submit it for review, so that everyone can take a stab at it.
When I do, I'll reply to this thread again with the bug-number.
Kind regards,
Jeroen van Meeuwen
