Probably fvwm2 is looking in the "standard" places for libXpm.so.4.9
and you didn't install it there.
You have a number of choices,
1) Install libXpm in the standard place. For example, if you are using
Solaris, put it in /usr/openwin/lib.
2) When you link fvwm2, use the -R flag. For example if libXpm is in
/u/xpm/lib, link fvwm2 with the flags -L/u/xpm/lib and -R/u/xpm/lib.
3) Start fvwm2 thru a shell and in the shell, set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to
include the library that xpm is in:
LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/u/xpm/lib
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH
exec /u/fvwm/fvwm2
