Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Compiling under MSVC 6.0 - simple Q, clear cut A ?

[Sleep Less <sleepless_tlv@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

I have faithfully followed the Cygwin/packages installation, done the distclean and verify_tools stages. At the setup stage I get an error at the glib part:

      bash tools\win32-setup.sh --appverify  cl  link  nmake  bash      bison      flex env   grep /usr/bin/find    perl env python sed  unzip      wget

Checking for required applications:
      cl: /cygdrive/d/PROGRA~1/MICROS~1/VC98/BIN/cl
      link: /cygdrive/d/PROGRA~1/MICROS~1/VC98/BIN/link
      nmake: /cygdrive/d/PROGRA~1/MICROS~1/VC98/BIN/nmake
      bash: /usr/bin/bash
      bison: /usr/bin/bison
      flex: /usr/bin/flex
      env: /usr/bin/env
      grep: /usr/bin/grep
      /usr/bin/find: /usr/bin/find
      perl: /usr/bin/perl
      env: /usr/bin/env
      python: /cygdrive/c/ibmtools/python22/python
      sed: /usr/bin/sed
      unzip: /usr/bin/unzip
      wget: /usr/bin/wget
****** glib-2.6.6.zip ******
No HTTP proxy specified (http_proxy and HTTP_PROXY are empty).
Downloading gtk2.6/glib-2.6.6.zip into , installing into glib

ERROR: Can't find glib

So while I fully believe it "cleanly" works for many, obviously there is something missing in the manual.

Any tips would be much appreciated.

Thanks
