  IUP 3.0 is taking more time than we expected. We should release an BETA
version in a few months. IUP 3 has 3 drivers: native Windows, Open Motif
2, and GTK+ 2 (that works in Windows and UNIX).

  Yes.

  Never saw that error before. But usually Motif compiling errors are
associated with the fact that Lesstiff is the default Motif available
and we use Open Motif. So to compile and run IUP 2.x in Linux you must
install the OpenMotif-dev packages.
