Ethereal-dev: RE: [Ethereal-dev] Help on config.nmake and errors for build processon WinXP wit
Hi,
I think I had a simmilar problem trying to build the 0.10.12 from the sources probably because of the PATH problem,
try to build from the latest SVN sources to see if it makes a difference.

The page:
http://www.ethereal.com/docs/edg_html_chunked/ChToolsWin32Recommended.html
will give you a good overview about the recommended tools.
You should have good reasons (and good knowledge with UNIX like build
environments) to compile Ethereal without cygwin installed (e.g. a bash
*is* mandatory).

No, there's something wrong with your build environment.
