You cannot link against openmotif21 since it doesn't provide the necessary .so symlinks. It doesn't store its libraries in %_libdir either, so the linker search path would be different, too. 2.) Are they really *binary* compatible? 3.) Conflicts during installation/upgrade is among the typical "WTF?" scenarios. Avoid them like the plague. -- fedora-extras-list mailing list fedora-extras-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-extras-list
