The library zip files on the server and in the setup target will match
only for the latest sources, as old zip files will be moved into the
<filename>old</filename> folder on the server. So you cannot use the
setup target for "old" (this may even include the released) sources!

You can download/install all required libraries by using the setup target
of the <filename>Makefile.nmake</filename> from the source package.

You could simply remove everything in the ETHEREAL_LIBS dir and call the

Remove all files previously unzipped from the downloaded files in your
ETHEREAL_LIBS library path (all the subdirs, e.g.
<filename>c:\ethereal_libs\gtk+</filename>),
except for the zip files located at the toplevel, which are the files
downloaded the last time(s). You could do this, be entering at the command line:

Start the setup target described above. As wget will download only the
missing files, existing zip files in the ETHEREAL_LIBS dir won't be
downloaded again. Outdated zip files shouldn't do any harm.
