Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Installing on Ubuntu 12.04.5

[Robert Cragie <robert.cragie@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

These are notes I took when building for Linux (Ubuntu):

Get all the tools (if not already installed):

sudo apt-get install <tool>

• git
• autoconf
• automake
• libtool
• bison
• flex
• qt-sdk
• libgtk-3-dev
• libpcap-dev

Then:

git clone https://code.wireshark.org/review/wireshark

./autogen.sh

./configure

make

The resulting file is called wireshark - this is Qt build presumably. There is also wireshark-gtk.

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.

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. See the file config.log for the
*** exact error that occured. This usually means GTK+ is incorrectly installed.
configure: error: GTK+ 3 is not available

To fix this, I tried sudo apt-get install gtk+3.0, which installed gtk+3.0, but I still get the error above when I try ./configure.

I have attached the config.log.

Thanks,

Tracy
