Thanks, I tried using the src.rpm as well as extracting the xpm and
putting it in the respective directory. Both give me the following
message:
Configuration:

I installed Suse6.2 out of the box, XForms is installed, libXpm not, but
it isn't on the Suse6.2 either, yet I believe they are what Suse calls
simply xpm - is this right? Any ideas how to get it installed?
