Hello,
 
i need to install ethereal version 0.10.4 in my laptop. I have installed Mandrake 9.2. I'm going to write what i do and the message that appears in the screen.
 
I try to install ethereal writting:
 
./configure
 
and the next error message appear:
 
checking for gtk_config... no
checking for GTK - version >= 1.2.0... no
*** The gtk-config script installed by GLIB could not be found
*** If GTK was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in
*** your path, or set the GTK_CONFIG environment variable to the
*** full path to gtk-config.
checking for glib-config... no
checking for GLIB - version >= 1.2.0... no
*** The glib-config script installed by GLIB could not be found
*** If GLIB was installed in PREFIX, make sure PREFIX/bin is in
*** your path, or set the GLIB_CONFIG environment variable to the
*** full path to glib-config.
configure: error: GLib distrosution not found
I thought that the problem was that the GTK and GLIB libraries were installed wrong. Then, i tried to install GLIB library writting:
 
./configure
make
make install
 
(i have installed glib library version 2.4.0)
 
Then, i tried to install gtk library:
 
./configure
 
and then another error message:
 
checking for glib-2.0 >= 2.4.0 atk >= 1.0.1 pango >= 1.4.0... Requested 'glib-2.0 >= 2.4.0' but version of GLib is 2.2.3

configure: error: Librery requeriments (glib-2.0 >= 2.4.0 atk >= 1.0.1 pango >= 1.4.0) not met; consider adjusting the PKG_CONFIG_PATH environment variable if your libraries are in a nonstandard prefix so pkg-config can find them
I don't know what is the problem. I imagine that a lot of people have installed ethereal under mandrake and i hope that somebody can help me.
 
I think that these libraries are installed in my laptop but perhaps the version isn' the correct or perhaps the problem is the path and the environment variables.
 
Thank you,
