I had a similar problem, fixed re: http://fuzzyocr.own-hero.net/ticket/40 Problem is older version of NetPBM which doesn't include the necessary programs. I use FreeBSD ports which has version 10.26 in graphics/netpbm and version 10.31 in graphics/netpbm-devel. Both of those are too old, you need minimum 10.34. Unfortunately 10.34 from source didn't compile cleanly on my system, so I had to stick with the older version. The link above has a patch for this problem. It applied cleanly to 3.5.0 RC1 patchset 3, but didn't make all the necessary changes. I documented the other changes I needed in the ticket. For tesseract, the linked ticket also includes a link to the tesseract source. pamtopnm is not discussed, as I didn't have that problem, but it is likely a new utility in NetPBM, but it is at least in freebsd's netpbm-10.26 port.
