I included the paths with the librarys etc. under eldk.

the autogen.sh script gives following error message:


./autogen.sh: line 48: automake: command not found

        You must have automake 1.6 or later installed to compile Wireshark.
        Download the appropriate package for your distribution/OS,
        or get the source tarball at ftp://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/automake/

I can't seem to locate automake under eldk however autoconf is located in /opt/eldk/ppc_4xx/usr/bin/autoconf
