Hi,

This is my first attempt at compiling version 0.8.0. autogen.sh ran
successfully, but make failed in the plugins directory. Here's the
tail-end of the make output:

make[2]: Leaving directory `/build/ethereal/cvs-src/ethereal/gtk'
Making all in plugins
make[2]: Entering directory `/build/ethereal/cvs-src/ethereal/plugins'
make[2]: *** No rule to make target `all'.  Stop.
make[2]: Leaving directory `/build/ethereal/cvs-src/ethereal/plugins'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/build/ethereal/cvs-src/ethereal'
make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2

The Makefile in the plugins directory is empty. I put in a dummy 'all:'
target and re-ran make. Then I encountered the following error:

make[2]: Leaving directory `/build/ethereal/cvs-src/ethereal/plugins'
Making all in libltdl
cd: can't cd to libltdl
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/build/ethereal/cvs-src/ethereal'
make: *** [all-recursive-am] Error 2

Since other people have successfully built this version, maybe I'm
missing something...or it's my NetBSD environment. I have libtool in an
unusual place so maybe this is the cause of the second problem.

Thoughts?

Thanks, Greg.
