Hello,

Yes I have, and then I get a different error:






In file included from about_dialog.cpp:25:0:
./ui_about_dialog.h:13:25: fatal error: QtGui/QAction: No such file or directory
compilation terminated.

This error is however quite logical, since the file QAction has moved from QtGui to QtWidgets in qt5.
qt4: /usr/include/qt4/QtGui/QAction
qt5: /usr/include/qt/QtWidgets/QAction

Thus this error is simply due to wireshark not being compatible with qt5 yet.
Note that replacing QtGui/QAction by QtWidgets/QAction results in a whole different set of errors, sadly it's not that simple ;).
Wireshark is compatible with qt5
you have clean the build (make distclean) after installing qt5 ? 

Kind regards

Hi,

Do you have try with Qt5 ?

Regards,

Hello all,

I'm trying to compile wireshark 1.99+ from git and have a few issues while doing so.
The first issue was mentioned elsewhere on the mailing list already (removing -Wc++-compat).

The second error however I don't see mentioned anywhere and occurs only when compiling wireshark-qt:

In file included from ../../image/about.rcc.cpp:9:0:
../../image/about.rcc.cpp:1627:44: error: ‘qInitResources_about__init_variable__’ defined but not used [-Werror=unused-variable]

Q_CONSTRUCTOR_FUNCTION(QT_MANGLE_NAMESPACE(qInitResources_about))

The config.log file (building most recent git version, tried 1.99.9 as well with the same result).

Any ideas on what causes this?

Kind regards,
