Hi Gisle,

Are you able to compile a native Win32 build on MinGW? It's not that
simple to do so on CygWin. If you use the Win32 libraries then you
need to tell GCC and/or libtool which libraries must be used (absolute
library path and names), and the PCRE linkage will not work as
GCC/libtool are looking for an export library in a .libs directory
which of courde doesn't exist :(

A non-native build on CygWin however succeeds without problems
(./configure --enable-gtk2 is all it takes on my computers). However
compiling and running Ethereal this way takes much longer.

Regards,

Olivier

| Disregard that. My makefile didn't make clean enough.
