I have been unable to compile ethereal 0.10.8 on Solaris because of an
unresolved dependency problem. I eventually tracked the problem to a
missing dependency on epan/dissectors/libdissectors.la at link time.
The attached patch to Makefile.in fixes the problem for me. If this
patch is acceptable, please include the change in future releases.
Also, I am not subscribed to this list, so please keep me in the CC list
on any future replies. I can also provide more information about my
original problem if requested.
