Thanks to diane for forwading me these mails, I'm on ethereal-dev, but
I'm moving so I probably wouldn't have paid much attention. :->

The ports system works in such a way that if gtk wasn't installed on their
machine, before ethereal would build it would install it (and the X libraries)
first.

Thanks for making it much easier to hook in support for tethereal only (its 
easier for me to test both now without having to have a clean room machine.)
