The current manual (Gnus 5.10.8) says:

,----[ (info "(gnus)X-Face") ]
|    Viewing an `X-Face' header either requires an Emacs that has
| `compface' support (which most XEmacs versions has), or that you have
| suitable conversion or display programs installed.  If your Emacs has
| image support the default action is to display the face before the
| `From' header.  If there's no native `X-Face' support, Gnus will try to
| convert the `X-Face' header using external programs from the `pbmplus'
| package and friends.  For XEmacs it's faster if XEmacs has been
| compiled with `X-Face' support.  The default action under Emacs without
| image support is to fork off the `display' program.
| 
|    On a GNU/Linux system, the `display' program is from the ImageMagick
| package.  For external conversion programs look for packages with names
| like `netpbm', `libgr-progs' and `compface'.
