I can kill the xenocara version instead, if it helps building openmotif based ports to have the version provided by openmotif installed. More generally I'd like to slowly kill imake in xenocara. Either by providing an alternative build system for ports still using imake, or by moving imake and its config out to ports. Does it make sense ? -- Matthieu Herrb
