The method someone mentioned yesterday works for me.

Either set your LD library path, or use libtool:

libtool --mode-execute ddd ethereal

At this point, you won't have any symbols. Enter "run" in ddd (gdb).

Ethereal will run. Ctrl-C it. Now you can added a break-point.

break dissect-mypacket

That should do it. When I configured, I set CLFAGS="-g -O0", otherwise
some of my temp variables that I want to inspect get optimized away.
