Hi all,

Here is a package of the "netpbm" package in linux-binary form.

The binaries included here need the shared libraries libc-4.5.21 and
libgr-1.3. I used a few tricks in the Makefiles to be able to link
with the older shared libs included in libgr-1.3. Therefore I also
included the hand-edited Makefiles here. 

Some people have asked me to create a new libgr-1.4, but I would
really like to wait with that until the original author of the pbmplus
package releases a new version: If he would decide for a change that
is incompatible with the API of the netpbm package I would be forced
to make a new libgr-2.0. Currently the few binaries that need new
routines from the libraries are linked with a static version of the
new function.

As usual with a package like this, I could not test all of the
binaries. I checked a few, and packaged it up. Please let me know if
something does not work.
