Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] Wireshark 0.99.5 "make rpm-package" problemsonRHEL3

["Maynard, Chris" <Christopher.Maynard@xxxxxxxxx>]

In an attempt to circumvent this problem I tried to disable gtk2.
Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work.  I still get the same "undefined
reference" as before.  But if 'gtk_text_buffer_select_range' is
applicable for 2.4+ only and I've disabled gtk2, then why is it still
trying to call it?  Wouldn't it fail for anyone building without gtk2
support on any platform?  

BTW: Attached are my configured options, and as you can see, most things
are actually disabled; I'm mostly just interested in tshark for this
rpm.

Ah, I guess that explains it.  Red Hat Enterprise Linux 3 is equipped
with  gtk2-2.2.4-19 (and gtk+-1.2.10-31).  Is gtk 2.4 or higher a
requirement for building a Wireshark rpm?  I did not see any mention of
any minimum 2.x requirement in the README.developer, README.linux or any
other README* files.

Is there any way to resolve this ... without having to upgrade to 2.4 of
course?  I can upgrade my own development box, but it would not be
possible for me to upgrade all boxes on which Wireshark is intended to
run on.

Thanks in advance,
Chris
(P.S. Thanks Joerg for the epan/crypt/Makefile.common fix.)

I've never tried building a Wireshark RPM unfortunately.  However, since

I wrote the code referenced above, your message caught my eye.  What 
version of GTK are you using on this system?  The 
gtk_text_buffer_select_range() function is available in GTK 2.4 and 
above.
