Hmmm... I do not know. Here is what I have:
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root        78832 Jan 25  1998 /usr/X11R6/lib/libXpm.a
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root           14 Sep 15 13:12 /usr/X11R6/lib/libXpm.so -> libXpm.so.4.10
lrwxrwxrwx   1 root     root           14 Sep 15 13:12 /usr/X11R6/lib/libXpm.so.4 -> libXpm.so.4.10
-rw-r--r--   1 root     root        53408 Jan 25  1998 /usr/X11R6/lib/libXpm.so.4.10

The autoconf should take care of finding your Xpm
library. When you run ./configure it should say:
checking for libXpm... -I, -L/usr/X11R6/lib

If it says just "no", then it cannot find the
location of your Xpm library. Then you should try
running ./configure specifying the location of the
Xpm library manually:
./configure --with-xpm-library=DIR
