Hi there,
I was trying to install the Ethereal into
my computer running on MontaVista Linux 3.1 and some errors popup.
I can successfully MAKE (install) the glib-2.6.1.tar.gz
and libpcap-0.8.3.tar.gz. However, when I tried to ./configure the pango-1.8.0.tar.gz
file, I received some errors. Same goes to the gtk+-2.6.1.tar.gz and ethereal-0.10.9.tar.gz.
These were what I did:-
gzip -dc pango-1.8.0.tar.gz | tar xvf -
cd pango-1.8.0
./configure

configure: error: GLib2 distribution not

There are some recommendations after each
error, but I really do not understand them. Can you please suggest what
step I should take?
Thanks
