Well, since OpenMotif and lesstif provide the same thing, a Motif-compatible toolkit. So I'd expect that their -devel packages would conflict. You'll probably have to remove either lesstif or openmotif.

But, if both these packages are in the RH9 Legacy repository, this
should get  fixed in Legacy, since packages in the same repo should
not conflict.

Looks to me like lesstif is not registered in the RH9 legacy
repository.  A "yum list lesstif" shows it in my RH9 box but not as an
available  package from the RH9 Legacy repository. So I guess I need
to remove one  and stick with the other. Since I am maintaining my box
with Legacy  updates, I'll stick with openmotif and will remove
lesstif... unless  anyone had any other suggestions. Thanks for the
quick feedback. [ars].



No, lesstif is an RH9 package, not an RH9 legacy pacvkage.

I have both installed on my system, the versions are the same as yours.

rpm -ql for each package shows no clash of files as the headers are in
different paths.

I don't understand why you're having this problem unless you have
rebuilt from source rpms with modified paths specified.


I have never rebuilt from source or explicitly installed either package myself. This is weird. Not that it might mean anything, but this box started a few years ago at RHL 7.2 and was upgraded single step incrementally all the way to RHL 9 through time. [ars].


Now this one got more spooky...

I just forced each install of the other packages (non-openmotif) manually, one at at a time using "yum -C update <pkgname>" and then just for grins did a "yum -C update" to force to look at cache with the last package left (openmotif). openmotif installed fine !!!
