AFAIK, we're shipping motif because some closed apps need it. How does that work if we get rid of libXm.so.3? Or did I misunderstand the point of those packages? Another concern is that the shared library packages contains a lot of non-versioned files. Those should be in a separate package so that different ABI versions are co-installable. Especially wtf at a shared lib package including files in /usr/include. Cheers, Julien
