Yup... no ethereal... just an desktop file:
/usr/share/apps/kappfinder/apps/Internet/ethereal.desktop

Seems to me I got the source and compiled under 8.2, then it was still
there when I upgraded to 9.0 -- I've been having problems just running
configure on 9.0; but that's an issue for another day.

After much searching, finally found one:  kcalc -- I guess we'll soon have
all apps starting with a "k" -- maybe we can have the shell prompt
