I tried this but it didn't seem to help. I had just re-built Imake so i imagine that probably took care of it.

These were both part of the problem. Apparently my libXpm.a was in /usr/X11R6.3/lib instead, so i just copied the files (i would have sym. linked them, but i seem to always mess things up with that); it was a dirty solution, but i don't have much time for anything else right now.

Anyway it compiled now. Thanks so much for the help

(ps apparently the message sent twice...my apologies)
