Following the announcement about deprecating nmake (which I have been using successfully for years), I thought I would try using CMake. I deliberately only want to build the GTK version so I use the following options with CMake:

cmake -DENABLE_CHM_GUIDES=on -DBUILD_wireshark=off -G "Visual Studio 12" ..\wireshark

CMake runs but there are some errors at the end:

I now try and build using msbuild:

msbuild /m /p:Configuration=RelWithDebInfo Wireshark.sln

I notice the following failures and there is no .exe produced:

Build FAILED.

Any ideas here?

Currently we don't support building without Qt using CMake.
