Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Fwd: About building the wireshark

Date: Mon, 28 Mar 2016 17:15:24 +0800
Hi,

After configure with "--disable-warnings-as-errors" ,  make without problems.
There are two other problems:
    1. I have install an older version of wireshark on my Ubuntu 12.04, is it OK to run "make insall" to install wireshark? Or is it possible to run the new make wireshark without "make install"?
    2. Is there a tutorial for newbie to setup build environment of wireshark? I followed https://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev/201404/msg00117.html to setup build environment on my Ubuntu 12.04(64 bit), but still got pains caused by the default version of libs(such as Qt and GTK) on Ubuntu 12.04 (:

wireshark-gresources.c is a generated source file (using
glib-compile-resources).
 
It seems the generated code is triggering compiler warnings. GTK+ 3.4 is
somewhat old so personally I'm not too concerned by this.
 
One of our build-bots is using Ubuntu 12.04 with GTK+ 3.10 and the
warning isn't showing there.
 
To get Wireshark to build you can try passing
"--disable-warnings-as-errors" to configure.
 
(I also think it is misguided that -Werror is enabled by default but
that is another topic).
 
Any issues you have feel free to ask.
