I'd like to locate the netPBM module on my Redhat 7.1 Ensim box (it is installed, I checked that). Anybody know where it's located or how I might find it. I need the path for an install script for a php based gallery.

Thanks.

Hey,
You can download the module from :
http://sourceforge.net/projects/netpbm/

I dont think it comes with the default perl package...

I'm assuming you need to know where the binaries are located. The default installation location for the binaries is "/usr/local/netpbm/bin". You can also do a "whereis jpegtopnm" to get the path of "jpegtopnm", which is included in the netpbm package and all other binaries are located there as well.

I looked in usr/local (I did this before) but there is no Netpbm folder and I can't find them in the other usr folders (though I could easily be overlooking them).

The binaries are installed, I just want to know where :(
Any way of having linux tell me where they are installed, or is that asking too much :confused:

Try 'rpm -ql netpbm'.

i need help. i have it installed:

<><>
Fetching rpm updates list...Done
Fetching rpm provides list...Done
Fetching rpm requires list...Done
Building local rpm provides list...Done
netpbm: installed version 9.24-9.73.2 is up to date, no action needed.

but i cannot locate it. on my prior freebsd box, it wa slocated at:

/usr/local/netpbm

i also need to locate exim.

tia for any help. i like to search before posting, and i found this thread, but it didnt help.

Try

locate netpbm

Yeah, "locate netpbm" would be what I'd recommend. You may, depending on when you last ran it, need to run "updatedb" as root first.

I find "locate netpbm | less" often works better, as in many cases you get pages and pages of output, so use less to page through them. :)

To update,

locate -u

works too.
