Hello,

I just installed a fresh installation of Gentoo on an Pentium 4 box. During the
process, I emerged emacs which came up with openmotif

Now I would like to emerge grass and when I type 'emerge -p grass', I can see
that it requires lesstif. This is fairly strange considering that openmotif is
already installed.
Isn't it possible to make grass (and in the same time all motif based package)
realise that if openmotif is there, there is no need for lesstif and vice versa?

yeah, as far as i read the docs this should be possible, changed dep to virtual/motif
