See ld(1)!
It's the dynamic loader that's complaining: it can't find (or perhaps read?)
the shared library libXpm.so.4.3. Exactly how you fix this is a bit system
specific, but typically you could do one or more of the following: ensure that
the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH includes the directory where the
shared library is installed (and that this is done in the process from which
fvwm2 is run); relink fvwm2 with the -R flag (or with the LD_RUN_PATH
environment variable set), giving the (absolute) directory containing the
shared library; link fvwm2 statically against libXpm. (You probably don't
want to do the last one.)
