Have you tried using OpenMotif instead of lesstif?
I got curious about Ubuntu 10.04 and compiled the current CVS build with OpenMotif. OpenMotif is still version 2.23, but I encountered the same right click problem that's been reported previously. Also, I got this same error that was reported previously when attempting to install xorg-dev: xorg-dev: Depends: x11proto-evie-dev but it is not installable Depends: x11proto-fontcache-dev but it is not installable I was able to compile without xorg-dev as I have been able to do previously with 9.04 and 9.10. Without xorg-dev, I added libxpm-dev so that snapshots will work. It seems odd that I have the right-click problem given it appeared to be a Lesstif issue while I used OpenMotif. Ideas anyone?
