On my Debian system, when I run: carrot# apt-cache search xpm4.7 I get: xpm4.7 - the X PixMap library, compiled with libc5 Your system should have a similar method of finding out what packages are available. E.g., rpm -some_arcane_set_of_options xpm4.7. I just looked over my notes from when I last had the same problem you described and noticed that someone suggested I install xpm4g as well. Someone else (Alan Shutko) said that xlib6 is needed as well as libc5. >From what I remember, I just ran 'apt-get install xpm4g' and 'apt-get install xpm4.7' and wp8 then installed without any further problems. Sorry I can't be more explicit as I have no experience with the rpm- based distros. A google search or a visit to wpuniverse.com (or is it .org?) may be needed if the above is no help.
