Hi all,
following my previous questions, I have finally got a wireshark binary. 
I thought I'd report how.

1) svn co http://anonsvn.wireshark.org/wireshark/trunk wireshark-trunk
2) Next I needed to do a hack to copy some of the library files to a 
place autoconf/automake can find them.

kestrel /tmp/wireshark-trunk %  aclocal --print-ac-dir
/opt/csw/share/aclocal


cd /opt/csw/share/aclocal
tar cf original-m4-macros *
kestrel /tmp/wireshark-trunk % cp 
/tmp/wireshark-trunk/aclocal-fallback/* /opt/csw/share/aclocal

3) autoreconf
it reports some errors about missing files, and says to correct by 
running automake --add-missing


4)  automake --add-missing

There is a persistent complaint about ltmain.sh missing.

I found a copy of that at /usr/local/share/libtool/ltmain.sh, so copied 
that to /tmp/wireshark-trunk

5) autoreconf

6) Configured it to use my Sun compiler

./configure CC=/opt/SUNWspro/bin/cc CXX=/opt/SUNWspro/bin/CC

There was still this error about the library and header for pcap not 
matching

configure:26535: WARNING: Your pcap library is more recent than your 
pcap header.
configure:26537: WARNING: Wireshark won't be able to use functions not 
declared
configure:26539: WARNING: in that header. You should install a newer 
version of


7) gmake

8) ./wireshart

It works. I've not tried capturing any data yet, but I can inspect some 
from a dump someone sent me.

Here's some info on the system. The machine is a Sun Blade 2000 (2 x 1.2 
GHz, 8 GB RAM), not a Blade 1000 as the output from unames suggests, but 
they are very similar machines.
