Everything worked with the 021010 snapshot and --without-sound. I
still had a few problems with pstopnm and pnmtopng because it was a
bit difficult to install (at least for me and on the university server
as I only have normal user privileges). Are those steps necessary? I
mean, isn't there anything that does the conversion directly? Or could
you just include the final files?
Maybe it might make life easier for others.

Thanks for the help,
