	I have been trying to compile ethereal on a Solaris host running 5.9.
I first had problems with glib & gtk which were the newer 2.x versions and
gtk-config could not be found.  Fixed by using the 1.x versions and installing pkg-config.  

	So now I can get past autogen.sh and when I do 'configure --disable-gtktest --disable-glibtest"  it dies with ...
"configure: error: old zlib found when linking with X11 - get rid of old zlib."

	I only have 1 zlib installed (1.2.1) and I could not find any
other instance of libz.a anywhere on this host.

--without-zlib did seem to help :S  Now NET-SNMP is not being found
and I tried "--with-net-snmp=/usr/local/bin"  which gave me this error..

"checking whether to use NET-SNMP library if available... yes
configure: error: Invalid net-snmp-config: /usr/local/bin"
