The *official* Git repository for Wireshark is not on GitHub, it's our own repository on code.wireshark.org. Changes to Wireshark get checked into our own repository. They should, eventually, get propagated to the GitHub repository, but that doesn't necessarily happen right after they're committed to the main repository. I'm not sure why we have a GitHub repository, but I would recommend that anybody who wants to build from the master branch use the Wireshark repository, not the GitHub repository, if they can; see https://www.wireshark.org/develop.html
Also like you have stated, i do have the libraries in the non standard paths as I installed them using brew. But i did update the PKG_CONFIG_PATH so that the configure script was able to find these libraries. It was when i used make that the compilation failed.
That's because epan/crypt/Makefile.am and epan/developer/Makefile.am were buggy in our code and failed to include, in the compiling commands, the -I flags for those packages, as determined by the configure script. The two commits in question fix those bugs.
I believe I am having issues with the make as I dont have the commits mentioned above.
Yes, so you either need to start using the main Wireshark repository or wait for the changes in question to be propagated to the GitHub repository.
On a side note is compiling with cmake not recommended due to some reason?
No, you should be able to use either autotools or CMake on UN*Xes. If one of them doesn't work, that's probably a bug. ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: https://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://www.wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
