Unforch, that didn't want to actually display anything but a packet list, and now I cannot go back to etherape, installing ethereal-gnome screwed something up, and not even a new make install of etherape after removing ethereal-gnome brings it back. The error reported when I try to run etherape now is: [root@diablo etherape-0.9.6]# etherape (EtherApe:20159): GLib-GObject-WARNING **: IA__g_object_set_property: object class `GtkFrame' has no property named `orientation' and its hung till I ctl-c it. And it was running quite nicely when I stopped it to give ethereal a try. How can I fix this?
It sounds like you had previously installed etherape by building from source and installing (i.e. outside of rpm), and that installing the ethereal-gnome package wrote over a library file when installing dependencies, such that when you removed ethereal-gnome that library file was different. This is the peril of installing unpackaged software outside of /usr/local. But, then I'm not sure why rebuilding and reinstalling etherrape wouldn't fix the problem (although it'll clobber your rpm database). Not very helpful, I'm afraid.
