Ethereal-users: Re: [Ethereal-users] Non-root installation of ethereal on Solaris system
What I did was:
1. Find all the "sed" programs on your system (by brute force if
necessary: "find / -name sed -follow -print")
2. On each one execute: "sed --version"
3. One will respond with a GNU message like:
"GNU sed version 2.05"
4. Change your $PATH environment variable so the path to that sed is
included and is BEFORE paths to other sed programs (if any).
5. If there are no versions of GNU sed on your system, install one and
make sure it is in your path.
6. Run ./configure again

I’m trying to install ethereal on a Solaris machine and I continue to get the following final lines that eventually lead up to an error message when I run ./configure
checking for LD_LIBRARY_PATH…no – this may be a problem in a few seconds
checking for GNU sed as first sed in PATH…no
checking whether one of /usr/bin/sed or /bin/sed or /usr/ucb/sed will be used…yes
configure: error: change your path to search /usr/xpg4/bin or directory containing GNU sed befor /usr/bin (and /bin and /usr/ucb)
Any help would be much appreciated.
