It is just a matter of adding "-L/path/to/lib -lXpm". You should probably keep in mind that building package is not just "./configure;make;make install", or "xmkmf -a; make; make install". > The only time I had no problems was when I installed the > Xserver in a non-default directory (/opt/X11R6 instead of > /usr/X11R6) and modified that in the top-Imakefile. If that's the case, a sybmol link would be enough to solve that. Also, fdesign is for programmers. If you just need the library, you can skip it.
