Ethereal Problems


When I install Ethereal, I needed to reinstall OpenSSL and Net-SNMP libraries. After I done this I get this error message:

ethereal: /lib/tls/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by /usr/lib/libnetsnmp.so.10)
ethereal: /lib/tls/libc.so.6: version `GLIBC_2.4' not found (required by /lib/libcrypto.so.6)

Do I need to install the whole glibc from the start? Would I not break something?

sounds like the version of openssl you installed isn't new enough. from what it looks like that version carries it's own static version of glibc. if you run "strings /lib/tls/libc.so.6 | grep GLIBC" i guess you'll go up to something like GLIBC_2.3.3 or something... try upgrading to a newer version.
