Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Issue with building wireshark from source

[vijay <vijay.prasanth@xxxxxxxxx>]

I have installed all the dependent packages - gtk3.1 , glib, pango atk and all the required packages.

Now when I run ./configure in wireshark build I get the following error:

checking for GTK+ - version >= 2.4.0... no

*** Could not run GTK+ test program, checking why...

*** The test program failed to compile or link. See the file config.log for the

*** exact error that occured. This usually means GTK+ is incorrectly installed.

configure: error: GTK+ 2.4 or later isn't available, so Wireshark can't be compiled

I have the latest version of GTK+ installed. Could some one please tell me what the issue is here?

 When i searched for solution many were suggesting gtk-dev package.

I am using 64bit ubuntu and I could not find a suitable GTK devel package. 

Can some one tell me where i can find the package?

Thanks

Vijay
