RPMs detect only libraries installed as RPMs, not random files on the file
system. You can use --nodeps, but the proper fix would be to wait for the
package to show up in RPM Fusion.
You also need to make sure the version of OpenMotif you installed is the
correct version, i.e. that it really provides libXm.so.4 and not .so.5,
so.3 or whatever.
Proprietary software sucks, proprietary software relying on proprietary
libraries (which falsely and misleadingly call themselves "Open") even more
so.

Thanks to your reminder, I went and tried it again. reinstalled openmotif
2.3.1.1.fc9 (downloaded from the openmotif site) and it went without a
hitch. then I installed citrix client and it went without a hitch.
Weird, I was definitely doing something wrong before.
Thanks for the hint.
