I was able to configure a couple of things to move forward...but I get the following error....and it does not tell me 
where the error is at.

make rpm-package

error: line 8: Illegal char '-' in version: Version:   1.2.3-SVN-26844
make  ***  [rpm-package] Error 1

Looks pretty easy to fix...but just not sure where to fix it.

Would anybody know what file this is being generated at..??

Thanks,
Brian

You may need to set the configure options in packaging/rpm/SPECS/wireshark.spec.in <http://wireshark.spec.in>.

    Hi,

    Assuming the RPM packaging software is available:
    $ make rpm-package

    Personally I don't have experience with RPM packaging, so I'm not
    aware of the
    status of RPM support. But there have not been complaints, so I
    expect it to work.

    Thanks,
    Jaap
