Hi,

I’m hoping you can give me some pointers about how to compile Wireshark
2.6.3 on a Raspberry Pi Model 3B, with Raspbian Stretch as the OS.

I have wireshark 2.2.6, installed via apt-get, but am experiencing a problem
which I have been told is solved in more uptodate versions of wireshark.
Unfortunately I haven’t been able to locate any later versions compiled for
the Raspberry Pi, which I understand uses an ARMv7 processor.

It’s my first time attempting a compile from source using CMake (I did use
make once about 5 years ago on another project – and that took me about 2
months to get working L ).  I’ve read a couple of CMake tutorials, but there
is rather a large gap between the basic “hello world” examples, and really
substantial project like wireshark!, on top of which I know very little
about C and C++.

So, assuming you have the sources, you should be able to do:

1. mkdir wireshark-build
2. cd wireshark-build
3. cmake /path/to/the/wireshark/source  # This might just be cmake ../wireshark
4. make
5. Wait a long while

If step 3 complains about something missing use apt-get or whatever to
install it, and run step 3 again.

Hmmm, now that I have looked at your CMakeError.log, it looks like
maybe you need a newer version of cmake.
