How to set wallpaper in Xmonad

Hi,

I have installed Xmonad from AUR, as mentioned here: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Xmonad, and I am trying to set my wallpaper, as mentioned in here: http://xmonad.org/tour.html , However, my installation doesn't have xpmroot command. How can I set my wallpeper?

Yo Dawg, I heard you likes patches, so I have created a patch for your patch, so you can patch your patches before you patch.

fvwm provides xpmroot, but have you tried using some other app, e.g. feh?

The most simple and minimal way is probably to use imlibsetroot from AUR: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=40199
