I'm running ./configure.
autoconf scripts write out, for debugging purposes, a "config.log" file.
One of the lines of output from ./configure is: "checking for inet_ntop... no" One the Fedora 25 system, where I'm successful with the build, it says: "checking for inet_ntop... yes"
So, if you look for that test in the config.log files on the two systems (searching for inet_ntop in the file should find it), what is the output for the test in question in the two files?
I've looked through the wireshark developer's guide, and google'd all around, but cannot find a list of required packages for building wireshark. If there is one, let me know.
Don't assume the problem is a missing package; it might be a bug in the configure script, so that it gets the wrong answer to the "do I have inet_ntop" test, possibly combined with:
Today I'm trying it on a Fedora 24 system and I'm running into a compilation error complaining about conflicting types for 'inet_ntop'
a bug in Wireshark's attempt to provide its own inet_ntop() on systems where the configure script thinks it's missing. ___________________________________________________________________________ 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
