Works well :) That's what I'll do, but Pertusus' packaging of lesstif is such kind of bad, this won't be easy, in this particular case. More generally speaking, the fact people have to build packages on their own at all, simply means "Fedora doesn't fit into their needs". As I said earlier in this thread, initially I had been hoping "Fedora would evolve into a better distro better meeting my demands" ... now I am facing the contrary. Fedora is regressing.
