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. kestrel /tmp % cc -V cc: Sun C 5.9 SunOS_sparc Patch 124867-01 2007/07/12 usage: cc [ options] files.
