Hi all

I think their plan is to use the ideas from -current.  I was the one that
brought up the ability to build tethereal/editcap without having to build
Ethereal. This was after someone indicated that Ethereal was all well and
good but it wouldn't work in their non-X environment.

I'll forward both e-mails I've recv'd to Bill Fumerola <sp>, he was the
person who indicated the sub-port.

The current CVS image of Ethereal can build only tethereal (and editcap)
if
the GTK+ libraries are not installed. This will probably work also for
the
case of people w/o X installed, although I have not tried that. Perhaps
you could suggest to them to try the current CVS image.
