Missing dependencies in installation script for Debian/Ubuntu

[nick-schwarzenberg]

Versions

• OS: Debian 10.9.0 (with GNOME), Xubuntu 20.04
• Python version: (not applicable)
• Python installation method: (not applicable)
• mobileinsight-core: 9eb0e72

Description

We were trying to set up mobileinsight-core using install-ubuntu.sh on a fresh Debian 10 install (and reproduced the issue on a fresh Xubuntu 20.04). Running cmake on line 47 failed. When tracking down the cause, we noticed three problems:

1. The error message on line 49 does not reflect the actual cmake command and is a bit misleading, one could think that the cmake binary is being looked for on the wrong path. Could be changed to: "Error when executing 'cmake -DBUILD_wireshark=OFF .' in ${WIRESHARK_SRC_PATH}/"
2. The output of cmake is suppressed (i.e., redirected to /dev/null, including stderr) which makes troubleshooting harder than it has to be. Why is this done actually, the other commands log to the standard outputs as well?
3. The following dependencies are missing: cmake, build-essential, git, and libgcrypt20-dev (could be added to line 35)

While the last point is the main problem, it might be worth to consider fixing the others as well.

Hi there,

I faced the same issue today.
I could solve this by changing the download link in line 40. from the install-ubuntu.sh script.

Basically, I changed

in line 23:
ws_ver=3.2.7
to:
ws_ver=3.4.8

and in line 40:
wget https://www.wireshark.org/download/src/all-versions/wireshark-${ws_ver}.tar.xz
to:
wget https://1.eu.dl.wireshark.org/src/wireshark-3.4.8.tar.xz

Now it's working for me on Ubuntu 21.04

Hello guys,
I follow the steps and replace the wget links to get wireshark version 3.4.8,
but still did not fix this problem,
OS: ubuntu 20.04

[schmijul]

Two ideas :

• Did you also change ws_ver=3.2.7 to 3.4.8 ?
  And maybe check if the link (behind wget) actually starts the download. ( You can copy the link and start from a browser)
  If not you need to get a new link ( best from wireshark website) but then you have to make sure that the tar command has the correct file name in it

• Maybe you need to delete wireshark first and then retry the script ?

sudo apt-get remove --purge wireshark
And
sudo apt-get autoremove

Can you try this new branch that we have updated Wireshark to 3.4.

[nick-schwarzenberg]

Originally, this issue was about inconveniences in the output of the script and missing packages. This doesn't seem to be fixed in branch dev-6.0. The above comments refer to downloading Wireshark sources, however, which is independent of the other problems.

Installing missed package libc-ares-dev resolved the issue with Wireshark.

Thought there is another one:
