I know that the ethereal in the main dir is only a shell script calling .libs/ethereal...but when i ran ddd on that executable file it still does not work...:-( I found a workaround, running ddd with a core file created with ethereal... not very nice...and it really get things in ddd go crazy 

I'd like to know this as well. When I run:

libtool --mode=execute ddd ethereal
gdb does not know where to find the source or symbols, yet it I do "run", it runs it.
I tried to build a static version, but that is broken on Solaris. The flags passed to the linker are wrong, and I was not able to work out why.
