xpdf with openmotif instead of lesstif?

I would like to use openmotif from the community packages because I have an app (praat) that requires it. When I go to install it, I get this:

# pacman -S openmotif
resolving dependencies... done.
looking for inter-conflicts... 
:: openmotif conflicts with lesstif. Remove lesstif? [Y/n] y
done.
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: lesstif requires xpdf

So I remove lesstif manually:

# pacman -S lesstif
:: lesstif-0.95.0-2: local version is up to date. Upgrade anyway? [Y/n] n
warning: lesstif-0.95.0-2 is up to date -- skipping
 local database is up to date
[root@trane kiesling]# pacman -R lesstif
checking dependencies... 
error: failed to prepare transaction (could not satisfy dependencies)
:: lesstif is required by xpdf

My next step would be to remove xpdf, except, but it is a useful program to have. So the question is, can xpdf be made to work with openmotif?

Re: xpdf with openmotif instead of lesstif?

Try pulling the xpdf PKGBUILD from ABS and building it with openmotif. It should be as simple as installing openmotif and replacing 'lesstif' with 'openmotif' in the xpdf depends.
