Lesstif cannot be found

Hi Yaakov,
Thanks for the helpful suggestions but I am still stuck as to how I am to 
install the two packages it listed:
$ cygcheck -p motif-config
Found 2 matches for motif-config.
lesstif/lesstif-0.94.4-1        Open-source Motif clone (utilities)
libXm-devel/libXm-devel-0.95.0-2        Open-source Motif clone 
(development)

I can even find the lesstif package on the cygwin website 
http://cygwin.com/packages/ but I cant find anywhere else to download it 
except the download I selected already in setup.exe

Thanks again for your help so far.
