Hmm,  I ran 
add-apt-repository ppa:ginggs/motif1565, which added this file:
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/ginggs-motif1565-trusty.list 
with the following contents:
# deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/ginggs/motif1565/ubuntu trusty main

add-apt-repository ppa:ginggs/motif1565
 Motif built with upstream's fixes for bug #1565 [1] reverted.

OK

Since I didn't see the updated packages, I uncommented the only line in 
/etc/apt/sources.list.d/ginggs-motif1565-trusty.list

After re-running the steps again, this time it added to 
ginggs-motif1565-trusty.list:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ginggs/motif1565/ubuntu trusty main

Looks like it worked this time:
