Please, do file a report for netpbm-10.24 using the send-pr(1) utility.
Make sure you put "ports" (without the quotes) in the "Category:" field
of your report and write a short description of the bug in the
"Synopsis:" field.
Add any other details you consider significant, such as versions of the
TeX and latex2html ports you used, any options you used when installing
the ports, a minimal sample LaTeX document that can be used to see if
the latex2html conversion works, etc.
Thanks for taking the time to check the older versions of netpbm :-)
