Ok.  That might explain why something is broken for you but not for
me.  Motif or OpenMotif are direct replacements for Lesstif
(actually, the other way around).  Motif is a commercial product.
OpenMotif is the free-for-individual users version.  I'm running
OpenMotif.

If you have a version of OpenMotif available for your system, you
might try switching to that instead of lesstif.

"libtiff" is something different.  It's what used for manipulating
TIFF-format image files.

I'd try removing these:

And installing the OpenMotif equivalents if you have them.  See if
the problem disappears.

It would help if you're familiar with the console RPM command, in
case your Xwindows system get broken by the changeover and you need
to switch back to Lesstif.
