Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] PDB Files

["Semjon" <semgo@xxxxxx>]

Hi,

it seems as if the bison command fails maybe there's something wrong with it 
(bison not installed/PATH not set)?

btw the setup process is described quite good here: 
http://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html_chunked/ChSetupWin32.html
I think sed installation isn't mentioned explicitely because it should be 
installed by cygwin-installer by default, but it's mentioned in point 2.2.7 
Verify installed tools.
There is also mentioned that you probably have to rename your link.exe.
