"Error while compiling manually fetched ethereal 0.9.10 sources throug `sudo port -v install ethereal +gtk1`"

[jmpalacios@…]

Hello darwinports people, earlier today I tried to compile and install ethereal but the sources were not to be found at the mai three sites set by dports. So I went to the ethereal site and upon realizing a new version was out I took it upon myslef to try to build it through dports. As per shantonu's advice (I think it was him) I modified the port file and entered the new version number and md5sum. Issued "sudo port -v install ethereal +gtk1" and everything wen fine for a long while until the following error was issued:

I hope that helps to fix the problem. Sincerely,...

Hello Kevin, or whoever is taking care of this bug. Last night I did some further testing and found out that ethereal 0.9.10's sources mangaed to build through darwinports *if* the "+gtk1" flag *is not* passed to the build process. That means, the command line utility builds fine but the graphical interface fails when working with ethereal 0.9.10Haven't tried to use gtk2 as I was adviced to stay away from it by some of you guys. Anyone care to comment... ?Juan.

The ethereal port is currently at version 0.9.13, so this doesn't really apply anymore.
