The openmotif and lesstif soname have the same base name but different
numbers. lesstif is like libXm.so.2 and openmotif libXm.so.3. This is 
asking for future trouble, though appplications can have 
Requires: lesstif
when they have been built with lesstif to mitigate the issue.

I am not exaclty sure what would be the right way in that case, though,
so I have postponed looking more at that issue.
