You appear not to have GLib installed correctly. According to the
config.log.gtk in your previous message, the error was
configure:4323:18: glib.h: No such file or directory
so, while you might have glib-config installed, you either don't have
glib.h installed, or the glib-config script isn't specifying the right
"-I" flags when you run it with the "--cflags" option.
Try running
/scratch/users/ukoul/Ethereal/glib-1.2.8/glib-config --cflags
It should print a couple of "-I" flag values. Check whether there's a
glib.h file in one of the directories mentioned in those flags. If
not, try re-building GLib and re-installing it.
