Hello,

I am trying to get a copy of Wireshark User's Guide for Wireshark
2.4.2, but when I follow the links on the web site I always get some
'For Wireshark 2.5' no matter how many times I hit refresh, disable my
cache, etc.  I went for the PDF, but in desperation I tried the .chm
and it has the same problem.

Where can I get a Wireshark User's Guide for Wireshark 2.4.2, since
2.5 isn't even out yet?  Do I have to clone some git and build it
myself?  I'm OK with that if it can be generated on linux, but I'd
need a pointer to some kind of 'how to build it' guide.  It's
confusing to get 2.4.2 application but the documentation is for some
unreleased version, so I have very low confidence in the documentation
since it probably uses 2.5 features that aren't even in 2.4.2.  Using
the application is already complicated, and I don't want to make the
learning curve even harder with  problems that come from using the
wrong documentation.

Thanks
