PrimeTrader requires the libmotif3 package. So run

Remove lesstif2 and install libmotif3 package as shown here.

Download PrimeTrader from http://www.netfonds.no and unpack/save the files to a suitable directory. I put the files to my home folder. You can also put them in /usr/local/ or /opt directory if you like.
