I would try to uninstall the lesstif rpm; See if you get any rpm
dependency errors. If you don't, I'd go ahead and switch to openmotif.
But if the blackdown jdk requires a patch against openmotif, the openmotif
RPM won't help you anyway - you'll need to compile it yourself, with their
patch.
I'm surprised nobody else seems posted any results trying this ... I'll
give it a shot and see how it goes.
