Subject: [Ethereal-users] Installation question.. gtk library issue.

Hi,

 

We are trying to install ethereal on our Unix workstation running solaris 2.8

 

ethereal-0.10.12-solaris2.8-sparc-local

 

We installed the gtk and glib libraries also because we did not have those on our workstation.  These libraries got installed in /usr/local/ directories.  Now when we tried to "pkgadd -d ethereal...", we got the following message :

 

=================================

WS# pkgadd -d ethereal-0.10.12-solaris2.8-sparc-local

The following packages are available:
  1  ethereal     ethereal 0.10.12
                  (sparc) 0.10.12

Select package(s) you wish to process (or 'all' to process
all packages). (default: all) [?,??,q]: all

Processing package instance <ethereal> from </opt/ethereal/ethereal-0.10.12-solaris2.8-sparc-local>

ethereal 0.10.12
(sparc) 0.10.12

## Executing checkinstall script.
/var/tmp/dstreAAAnRaOwx/ethereal/install/checkinstall: gtk-config: not found

 

        This package requires gtk+ version >= 1.2 installed in /opt/sfw/bin.
        Aborting installation.

 

pkgadd: ERROR: checkinstall script did not complete successfully

Installation of <ethereal> failed.
No changes were made to the system.

=======================================

It is trying to look for the gtk in /opt/sfw/bin/ directory.  Is there any way for ethereal install script to look for the gtk in /usr/local/... directory ?

Thanks,

-Nirat.
