If you installed a packaged version of netpbm you may not have got the
header files necessary to compile programs which link to it.

Look for /usr/include/pnm.h which should be present. Also, can you see
/usr/lib/libpnm.so*, which is the actual library itself.

netpbm-10.19-7.i386.rpm is included with Fedora Core 2 and provides
libpnm. You can download it from:

http://download.fedora.redhat.com/pub/fedora/ \
linux/core/2/i386/os/Fedora/RPMS/netpbm-10.19-7.i386.rpm

If you still don't get anywhere please post the output of ldconfig -v



Regards,

James
