Hi all,
  This is my first message on the list....,
  I have just installed ethereal 0.8.11 downloaded from
http://www.rge.com/pub/systems/aix/bull/aix432/. I also installed all
the prerequistes required for ethereal (glib, gtk, etc). The software
was installed successfully.
  Now, when I tried to execute ethereal I get the following error:

--- cut here ---
bash-2.01# ethereal
exec(): 0509-036 Cannot load program ethereal because of the following
errors:
        0509-022 Cannot load module /usr/local/lib/libgdk.a(shr.o).
        0509-150   Dependent module libXext.a(shr.o) could not be
loaded.
        0509-022 Cannot load module libXext.a(shr.o).
        0509-026 System error: A file or directory in the path name does
not exist.

--- cut here ---

I don't know why the program can not load the module
/usr/local/lib/libgdk.a even when the file does exist. In fact, it has
the following permissions:

bash-2.01# ls -l /usr/local/lib/libgdk.a
-r--r--r--   1 root     system    453685 Nov 17 2000 
/usr/local/lib/libgdk.a

In addition, I have set up the LIBPATH enviroment variable to:
/usr/local/lib:/lib:/usr/lib:/usr/lib/netls/ark/lib/

I think I have missed something......

Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.
