Hi, with WireShark 0.99.6, I am having trouble building TShark
statically.
If I do this:
./configure --enable-static --disable-wireshark
make
I get an error about -lgmodule
However, I seem to have the appropriate libraries installed:

Yes, but there's no libgmodule.a - i.e., no static library.
What's more, if Linux's notion of a static build is anything like
SunOS 4.x's and 5.x's, it might not be possible for there to *be* a
libgmodule.a; the gmodule stuff is for run-time loading of modules
(such as plugins), and a fully-static binary might not have the run-
time linker available.
If so, you will have to configure with --without-plugins.
If I do this:
./configure --enable-static --disable-wireshark --without-krb5
--without-ssl --disable-text2pcap --enable-dftest=no --enable-
randpct=no
--enable-ipv6=no --enable-threads=no --without-portaudio --disable-
gtk2
--without-lua --enable-dftest=no --enable-static=yes --with-net-
snmp=no
--with-ucd-snmp=no --without-adns --disable-gtkplus --disable-gmodule
--disable-glib
--disable-glib? Good luck - Wireshark and TShark use GLib all over
the place.
I'm not sure there's any such option in any case; note that configure
scripts don't check whether the string after --enable or --disable is
valid:
$ ./configure --disable-magic-fingers
checking build system type... powerpc-apple-darwin{censored}
checking host system type... powerpc-apple-darwin{censored}
