I got ethereal from http://www.ethereal.com/distribution/rpms/.When I installed it,system told me ucd-snmp is missed. I download ucd-snmp and net-snmp and retry ,but I failed again. So I got resource code from http://www.ethereal.com/distribution/ethereal-0.10.11.tar.gz. But I still failed . I will reprot the step,Please help me to find what's wrong with it.
(1)first,I install net-snmp
[root@LinuxQQ 20050717]# rpm -ivh net-snmp-5.0.6-17.src.rpm
warning: net-snmp-5.0.6-17.src.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID db42a60e 1:net-snmp ########################################### [100%]

[root@LinuxQQ 20050717]# rpm -ivh net-snmp-devel-5.0.6-17.i386.rpm
warning: net-snmp-devel-5.0.6-17.i386.rpm: V3 DSA signature: NOKEY, key ID db42a60e Preparing... ########################################### [100%]
       package net-snmp-devel-5.0.6-17 is already installed

[root@LinuxQQ 20050717]# rpm -ivh ethereal-base-0.10.0a-1.RH9.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
       ucd-snmp is needed by ethereal-base-0.10.0a-1.RH9
(2)I found the same message is shown,so I installed ucd-snmp

[root@LinuxQQ 20050717]# rpm -ivh ucd-snmp-4.2.6-2.src.rpm
1:ucd-snmp ########################################### [100%]
[root@LinuxQQ 20050717]# rpm -ivh ethereal-base-0.10.0a-1.RH9.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
       ucd-snmp is needed by ethereal-base-0.10.0a-1.RH9
(3)I tried compile resource code.when I use "./configure",the reslut is below
checking ucd-snmp/ucd-snmp-config.h usability... yes
checking ucd-snmp/ucd-snmp-config.h presence... yes
checking for ucd-snmp/ucd-snmp-config.h... yes
checking whether UCD SNMP includes sprint_realloc_objid... no
configure: error: UCD SNMP requires -lcrypto but --with-ssl not specified
(4) ./configure --with-net-snmp=/usr/src/ configure: error: Net-SNMP requires openssl but ssl not enabled
(5)./configure --with-net-snmp=/usr/src/ --with-ssl=/usr...
the same result as (4):configure: error: Net-SNMP requires openssl but ssl not enabled
(6)./configure  --with-ssl=/usr...
compiling success.system shows:

(7)Compliing is successful.Even though I am not be satisfied with the result,I decided to try " make " command.But I failed once more.

make[2]: *** [version_info.o] Error 1
make[2]: Leaving directory `/home/jqq/wlan/tool/ethereal/20050717/sourcecode/eth
ereal-0/ethereal-0.10.11'
make[1]: *** [all-recursive] Error 1
make[1]: Leaving directory `/home/jqq/wlan/tool/ethereal/20050717/sourcecode/eth

make: *** [all] Error 2


Would you mind helping  me to find the reason? thanks in advance.
