Matthew is right. Just try compiling the sources.

If you run into problems, let us know.

If you were wondering about Yellowdog RPMs or something like
that, then, no, we don't have them, and I have no way of
testing them, if I did make them. However, if the particular
distro you are using supports RPMs, you may be able to
easily create a reasonable RPM from the existing Fedora
Core-compatible spec file. 
If you are using Gentoo, then there is already an ebuild of
Xconq 7.4.1 for PPC; if you are looking for an ebuild of the
7.5 prereleases, then you may have to wait. I was working
with somebody on this, but I haven't heard from him for a
few months.

Have you tried compiling it for Linux PPC?  I'd hope that it should 
already work there; if not, it shouldn't be too hard to make it work.
