I think Dan has hit it on the nose.

I see at:
http://www.novell.com/products/linuxpackages/suselinux/libnetpbm.html

they do what Dan suggests. In fact, they link many more names to libnetpbm

lrwxrwxrwx    1 root    root   12 Apr 23 03:26 /usr/lib64/libpbm.so -> 
libnetpbm.so
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root    root   12 Apr 23 03:26 /usr/lib64/libpgm.so -> 
libnetpbm.so
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root    root   12 Apr 23 03:26 /usr/lib64/libpnm.so -> 
libnetpbm.so
lrwxrwxrwx    1 root    root   12 Apr 23 03:26 /usr/lib64/libppm.so -> 
libnetpbm.so

My apologies to Nicolas for my earlier hasty reply, where I didn't have
a clue what I was talking about (didn't notice the lib name different
than what gets installed).
