Hi list,

In autotools times (i.e., 2.6.x) I was used to run:

$ make dist

to get a Wireshark source code tarball.
It looks like CMake wants to offer something similar

$ cmake ../ -DWS_SOURCE_DIR=“/tmp/wireshark”
$ make dist

But this fails over unreachable target ‘package_source’.
So, is this even supposed to work?
It uses cmake/modules/Dist.cmake, a module gone from the master.
Do we now fall back to tools/git-export-release.sh?
What am I missing here?

Seems to be what the buildbot is doing: https://buildbot.wireshark.org/wireshark-master/builders/Ubuntu%2016.04%20x64/builds/5055/steps/git-export-release/logs/stdio

Indeed, for master. 

What about master-2.6? There the autotools tarball build is used on the buildbot.

How is it supposed to work there with CMake?

Thanks,
