Hello,

I have found myself running a large number of GTK-based apps on Windows, 
and would like to avoid having multiple copies of GTK with diverging 
versions etc.

I have installed a stand-alone GTK runtime enrivonment from the GIMP 
site, and have other GTK applications running via that setup.  However, 
Ethereal doesn't seem to want to use the global files.  If the DLL files 
are not present in the Etheral install directory, even if they are in 
the path or even if they are in the same folder as ethereal.exe, the 
program GPF's on startup.

I moved the exe and dll files for Ethereal into my C:\gtk\bin folder 
(where I can successfully run GIMP, Xchat, and a few other apps.)  I can 
see from FileMon that svchost.exe is querying for, and not finding, 
"C:\Program Files\Ethereal\wiretap-0.1.dll", "C:\Program 
Files\Ethereal\libglib-2.0-0.dll", etc.  I can't figure out where this 
path is coming from, as I've changed all registry references and 
rebooted the machine.

I assume that, even if I get this working, the other folders inside the 
Ethereal setup will also have issues.  I'm pretting confident about the 
share\ and lib\ folders, as they coincide with the \gtk\lib and 
\gtk\share folders, but I'm especially concerned with Ethereals snmp\ 
and plugins\ folders.

Anyone else tried to do this before, with success, and how do you 
accomplish it?
