Fedora Core packages dependent on openmotif are xpdf, ddd. tetex-xdvi, 
mesa-libGLw as stated in the above bug report.  If there are many 
packages dependent on openmotif in Fedora Extras we could do this as a 
two step process.

* Move all openmotif dependencies and openmotif itself into Fedora Extras
* Fix or drop packages as necessary.

The advantage of moving it into Fedora Extras is that the broader 
community of packages can work on this and resolve things faster.
