You have something even worse wrong. I see ethereal in the

from the command line in a Konsole window. There is nothing about
kde that breaks gtk/gnome apps.
I did not see befor or after installing etherape, and etherape was the
first tarball I'd built. Everything else except skype is an rpm. And I
built it to get a network monitor of SOME kind. There is not, and never
has been, an ethereal available in any kde menu. What tree did yours
show up in?
It's under 'Internet'.
I'm looking in the yumex info for the installed ethereal,
and the info there does not show an executable binary as being part of
that package:
/etc/pam.d/ethereal
/etc/security/console.apps/ethereal
/usr/lib/ethereal
/usr/lib/ethereal/plugins
/usr/lib/ethereal/plugins/0.99.0
/usr/lib/ethereal/plugins/0.99.0/acn.so
/usr/lib/python2.4/site-packages/agentx.so
/usr/sbin/artnet.so
/usr/share/doc/asn1.so
/usr/share/doc/ethereal-0.99.0/ciscosm.so
/usr/share/doc/ethereal-0.99.0/doc/coseventcomm.so
/usr/share/cosnaming.so
/usr/share/ethereal/docsis.so
/usr/share/ethereal/diameter/enttec.so
/usr/share/ethereal/dtds/gryphon.so
/usr/share/ethereal/help/h223.so
/usr/share/ethereal/radius/irda.so
/usr/share/man/man1/lwres.so
/usr/share/man/man4/mate.so
I do not see an excutable binary in that list, hence my comment about
the packaging of it. Does yours show one?
The piece you want is in ethereal-gnome:
# rpm -q --list ethereal-gnome
/usr/bin/ethereal
/usr/sbin/ethereal
/usr/share/applications/net-ethereal.desktop
/usr/share/man/man1/ethereal.1.gz
/usr/share/pixmaps/ethereal.png
Thats the one I installed, but didn't seem to want to work. The main
display window was still a blank after 10 minutes worth of browseing and
two email fetch runs by tbird.
