The issue is that some of the DLLs from the developer ZIP archives don't
have the executable bit set.

The following addition to the code in tools/win32-setup.sh fixes this:

	unzip -nq "$DEST_PATH/$PACKAGE" || 
		err_exit "Couldn't unpack $DEST_PATH/$PACKAGE"
+	echo "Verifying that the DLLs in $DEST_PATH/$DEST_SUBDIR are
executable."
+	for i in `find $DEST_PATH/$DEST_SUBDIR -name \*\.dll` ; do
+		if [ ! -x "$i" ] ; then
+			echo "Changing file permissions (add executable bit)
to:"
+			echo "$i"
+			chmod a+x "$i"
+		fi
+	done
	;;
 *)

I'll check in this fix tonight.

Regards,

Olivier

|Hi list,
|
|Some official MSVC builds have incorrectly produced 
|documentation. I can
|reproduce this too with a fresh install of Ethereal on an ethereal-less
|machine. The root cause is that it is impossible to run 
|tethereal from the
|location where it has been built.
