What is the easiest way to add the ethereal program on Fedora Core 1?
I downloaded the ethereal-kde-0.10.0a-1.RH9.i386.rpm and tried to install it.
This leads to the requirement of other packages.
It seems that one package require another package.
Is there a better way?

# rpm -ivh ethereal-kde-0.10.0a-1.RH9.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
        ethereal-base = 0.10.0a-1.RH9 is needed by ethereal-kde-0.10.0a-1.RH9
        ethereal-gtk+ = 0.10.0a-1.RH9 is needed by ethereal-kde-0.10.0a-1.RH9
        ethereal-usermode = 0.10.0a-1.RH9 is needed by ethereal-kde-0.10.0a-1.RH9

# rpm -ivh ethereal-base-0.10.0a-1.RH9.i386.rpm
error: Failed dependencies:
        ucd-snmp is needed by ethereal-base-0.10.0a-1.RH9
