OT: check book balancer - xacc packages

[Xucaen <xucaen@yahoo.com>]

hi all.
has anyone ever installed either of the following
debian packages?

stable  100%  xacc-smotif 1.0.17-1   (1166.5k)  
   A personal finance tracking program. 
stable  75%  xacc 1.0.18-4   (344.4k)  
   A personal finance tracking program. 

I was wondering what the difference between them
is (besides their version numbers ;-). 
The xacc-smotif description says it is "linked
statically with Motif. It may be more stable than
the Lesstif based version"
what does it mean to be statically linked to
Motif? What is Motif? What is Lesstif? 

thanks!
