Hi,

Better ask the developer list.
In the mean time my guess is you've misted the ./autogen.sh and configure steps.

Thanx,

Hello,

   I'm trying to install a dissector in wireshark. I'm following the
steps suggested in the install file, which says to update the
Makefile.common in epan/dissectors, and recompile wireshark. But it is
not showing in the Protocol list and traffic is not decoded yet.

   Can anyone give me a hand on this? I'm unsure it is a problem with
the dissector code, since it was written for Ethereal (~2006), and now
I'm trying it on wireshark. Was there any change in the template for
dissectors?

    The dissector source is attached.

thanks in advance,
