No
can't compile it,
after extracting the source....
# ~//transcode-0.6.12/contrib/subrip $ make
Linking subtitle2pgm
/usr/lib/gcc-lib/i686-pc-linux-gnu/3.3.4/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld:
cannot find -lppm
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status
make: *** [subtitle2pgm] Error 1
doc says it only depends on gocr and transcode, have those
any reply is welcome :)

it says in the readme to comment out the lines that enable
lppm support if you dont have it, rtfm.

You can fix this by going into the Makefile and changing the
lines
### enable ppm support ###
DEFINES += -D_HAVE_LIB_PPM_
LIBS += -lppm
to:
### enable ppm support ###
DEFINES += -D_HAVE_LIB_PPM_
LIBS += -lnetpbm
I think they just changed the package these libraries were
in, or at least the reference to it, and the Makefile hasn't
been updated since then.

You need libppm.

libppm is no longer maintained, netpbm contains ppm support thankfully so
the nobody that mentioned to change the lib to netppm is correct.
