Hi
I have installed etherealon several windows machines but am getting  
nowhere on my MAC. This is the error I get:
"Reading Package Lists...
Building Dependency Tree...
Sorry, ethereal is already the newest version.
0 packages upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 2  not upgraded.
2 packages not fully installed or removed.
Need to get 0B of archives. After unpacking 0B will be used.
Setting up gtk+2 (2.4.9-1009) ...

/sw/bin/dpkg: error processing gtk+2 (--configure):
  subprocess post-installation script returned error exit status 133
dpkg: dependency problems prevent configuration of ethereal:
  ethereal depends on gtk+2; however:
   Package gtk+2 is not configured yet.
/sw/bin/dpkg: error processing ethereal (--configure):
  dependency problems - leaving unconfigured
Errors were encountered while processing:
  gtk+2
  ethereal
E: Sub-process /sw/bin/dpkg returned an error code (1)"
It may be something simple but I have spent several hours  failing to  
solve it.
thanks
