[Wireshark-dev] New contributor
Hi developers, I would like to contribute code to wireshark. I would appreciate your help if there are somethings that I should consider. Are there any trivial bug fixings for new comers? I'm currently a contributor of Bugzilla project.

You could use AC_TRY_COMPILE() with a test program such as #ifndef Z_BLOCK #error "Z_BLOCK isn't available" #endif and with zlib.h being one of its includes. ___ Sent via:Wireshark-dev mailing list Archives:http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-requ...@wireshark.org?subject=unsubscribe

I propose another solution: #ifdef Z_BLOCK /* when preset */ #else /* when no */ #endif That would obviously be great--but is it reasonably possible?

[Wireshark-dev] including GPLv3 autoconf macro in Wireshark
Hi folks, I found out recently that Wireshark needs the Z_BLOCK macro which is only in zlib 1.2.0.5 and later. Rather than checking explicitly for the version (which seemed like it would be a pain) I thought I'd check for the macro. A quick search for AC_CHECK_DEFINE found me something in the Autoconf Archive[1] but (just before I checked it in, I discovered that) the current version[2] is GPLv3. [1] https://www.gnu.org/software/autoconf-archive/ [2] http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=autoconf-archive.git;a=blob_plain;f=m4/ax_check_define.m4 I've never done much with license compatibilities, so I have to ask: can I add this macro to Wireshark's aclocal-fallback? Or do I have to find another solution?

[Wireshark-dev] privilege separation
On the Wireshark wish list is "Add privilege separation for POSIX environments (in progress)." What's left to do on that one? Apply the privilege during a "make install"?
