Odd as it may seem, Xpm is not part of standard X.

Look in /usr/X11R6/lib and see if libXpm.* is there. If not, find the
Xpm rpm and install it. If so, something else is wrong (maybe you have
an old version of Xpm?). Send us the output of the config.log test for
xpm (search for xpm in config.log and send us the contents around that
spot).
