Hi Maintainer

The lesstif2 package on which your package depends or build-depends is
destined to be removed from the archive before the release of Jessie.
More information can be found in the Debian wiki [1].

Please update your package to build against the motif package instead.
In most cases this can be done by simply replacing the build-depends on
lesstif2-dev with libmotif-dev, however please do verify proper
behaviour before uploading.

Your package depends on cernlib which also needs to be transitioned
as well as libxbae4 which has has already transitioned in experimental.
Packages geant321 and cernlib depend on paw.

Regards
Paul and Graham
