Ok thanks..., I took your advice and got everything from one place;
"mandrake cooker"
That got tethereal running; thanks.
but ethereal didnt get built..... Then I tried a separate "make ethereal"
which gave the following error:
"No rule to make target gtk/libui.a needed by ethereal stop".
Q1: Should I have put in all the src rpm PATCHES?
Q2: Any idea why "libui.a" wasnt built?
Q3: Would subversion help me out?
Thanks for throwing me a bone....

Q: Can someone point me to GTK+ in RPM form.
(I tried compiling Glib and GTK+ on Mandrake, but gave up and now I am
using
redhat).
Hmmm, usually there should be suitable GLib and GTK+ packages available
by the corresponding package manager on any widely used distros.
The Glib / GTK versions should be no problem, as virtually all versions
are supported by Ethereal.
Did you installed the developer packages (e.g. something like
glib-2.0.3-dev) as well? These will include the header files and other
developer related things. You'll need them to compile Ethereal.
