Thank you to Robert, Dario, Guy and Anders. I will try this, this evening. Your help is much appreciated!
Guy, yeah, I had noticed that the version in the repository was old, which was why I was trying to do this the "hard" way. Dario, thanks for the info on how to find this stuff out myself, in the future. VERY useful! Robert, and Anders thanks for the lists. I have a few of them installed, but will add the rest. *Tracy Hockenhull 913-730-0533* On 10/23/2014 3:18 AM, Anders Broman wrote: > Hi, > In my lazy (Ubuntu 14.04) I have noted: > Get the development packages needed to build Wireshark > sudo apt-get build-dep wireshark > sudo apt-get install qt5-default > sudo apt-get install libssl-dev > sudo apt-get install libgtk-3-dev > > This lets you build Wireshark with most of the bells and whistles and I think > it reflects the Ubuntu standard version. > On 12.04 you may have to settle for Qt4 > > Regards > Anders > > -----Original Message----- > From: [email protected] > [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Guy Harris > Sent: den 23 oktober 2014 09:19 > To: Developer support list for Wireshark > Subject: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Installing on Ubuntu 12.04.5 > > > On Oct 22, 2014, at 8:43 PM, Tracy Hockenhull <[email protected]> > wrote: > >> I'm fairly new to Linux, and new to Wireshark, and I'm having problems with >> the ./configure part of the process to install Wireshark. > On Ubuntu, the standard process to install a program is "fire up Synaptics > Package Manager, search for it, and install the package it finds". > > If you want a version newer than the version in the Ubuntu repository - which > you might, because my Ubuntu 12.04 (virtual) machine claims that the current > version in the package repository is 1.6, which is, err, umm, *three major > versions out of date* - then, if there isn't a convenient PPA with something > less out-of-date, you would need to... > >> The error I'm getting is this: >> >> checking for GTK+ - version >= 3.0.0... no >> *** Could not run GTK+ test program, checking why... >> *** The test program failed to compile or link.
