Don't try to use the rpm of ethereal if you aren't using the rpm's of libpcap.  Compile from source.  I'd suggest you check your /usr/src/ethereal-0.9.3 directory ;-)

  Subject: [Ethereal-users] Brand new


  Hi,

  I'm brand new to ethereal, and to kismet, which brought me here,

  Just got kismet working, after much hair pulling, and am trying to get ethereal working.

  I'm running redhat 7.2, with the latest tcpdump pcap stuff (I believe).

  But, when I try to run ethereal, I get:

  [root@localhost etc]# ethereal
  ethereal: error while loading shared libraries: libsnmp-0.4.2.1.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory

  I downloaded the latest rmps and get:

  [root@localhost src]# rpm -i ethereal-b*
  error: failed dependencies:
          libpcap.so.0.6.2   is needed by ethereal-base-0.9.3-1
          libsnmp.so.0   is needed by ethereal-base-0.9.3-1

  What am I missing?

  Thanks,

  Joseph R. Skoler
