The two package sets are contradictory to each other which is probably
what's freaking yup (and rpm) out. Install one, then odd and you should be
ok. If odd lists both as a dependancy, you should looks at the odd docs
to see how exactly they want things installed and why the hell it needs
both openmotif and lesstif.
Most likely it's reccomending one or the other and perhaps its getting
confused or the package was built incorrectly with conflicting require
statments, in that case, jsut install one or the other and then install
the odd package with "rpm -ivh <packagename>" and then email the package
maintainer and let him know there are problems with his package :)
