Perhaps hide the link using css?

    .fpltemplate .createlinktext { display:none; }
    .fpltemplate .createlink { display:none; }

This suppresses the display of all "create link" elements within
the output of a pagelist template.

We could also see about adding a condition to test for the
existence of an attachment.
