Description Chuck Brewer 2004-01-12 21:36:23 UTC

summary says it all really. I was gonna rebuild kdebase with lesstif to get my
 plugins working, but use +motif on kdebase makes it pull in openmotif instead
 of virtual/motif. I consider this strange as kde.org lists lesstif as the optional lib, with no mention of openmotif. According to changlog..it was moved to virtual/motif in Feb 03 but now has changed back? Also the "fixed motif dep" in the CL isnt too descriptive of the why.Thanks
