Hi all,
 
I have installed wireshark-0.99.4 in Solaris10.
 
I wanted to generate a solaris package which can be used to install wireshark from package in another system instead of installing from source.
 
I gave the command make solaris-package and it generated the package wireshark-0.99.4-solaris2.10-sparc-local.
 
But when i do a
 
pkgadd -d wireshark-0.99.4-solaris2.10-sparc-local
 
I get the following error.
 
The following packages are available:
  1  wireshark     wireshark 0.99.4
                   (sparc) 0.99.4
Select package(s) you wish to process (or 'all' to process

pkgadd: ERROR: checkinstall script did not complete successfully
Installation of <wireshark> failed.
No changes were made to the system.
 
Could you please explain what is the problem. I'm not able to figure out.
 
 
Thanks in advance,
