- should be compiled against and tested with LessTif (a free
- re-implementation of Motif) instead. If the maintainer
- judges that the program or programs do not work
- sufficiently well with LessTif to be distributed and
- supported, but do so when compiled against Motif, then two
- versions of the package should be created; one linked
- statically against Motif and with <tt>-smotif</tt>
- appended to the package name, and one linked dynamically
- against Motif and with <tt>-dmotif</tt> appended to the
- package name.

- Both Motif-linked versions are dependent
- upon non-DFSG-compliant software and thus cannot be
- uploaded to the <em>main</em> distribution; if the
- software is itself DFSG-compliant it may be uploaded to
- the <em>contrib</em> distribution. While known existing
- versions of Motif permit unlimited redistribution of
- binaries linked against the library (whether statically or
- dynamically), it is the package maintainer's
- responsibility to determine whether this is permitted by
- the license of the copy of Motif in their possession.
