I don't recall what support policy, if any, was decided regarding the various distributions, but I believe at least one commit (https://code.wireshark.org/review/#/c/14041/) was reverted due to the adverse affect of breaking Wireshark builds on RHEL6. Now that RHEL6 has reached the end of production phase 1[1], I don't know if we want to move forward with that patch (or other patches?). I don't follow other distributions that closely and don't know what versions of the various packages they supply, so while I think it would be reasonable to no longer worry about supporting RHEL6, perhaps there are other distributions that would be the new bottleneck? (RHEL7, by the way, ships with autoconf-2.69.) - Chris [1]: https://access.redhat.com/support/policy/updates/errata ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: https://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
