Re: This newbie is asking too much... (ethereal + libpcap)

Alfonso,

Did you install the ethereal tarball or RPM?
If you installed the RPM, then ethereal is looking for
the package libpcap, not just the library installed.

Install the RPM for libpcap, then the ethereal.
Or you can rebuild the ethereal from the source which
should fix the problem.

Also try running "ldconfig" as root after you install libpcap.
