Wireshark · Wireshark-users: Re: [Wireshark-users] Latest SVN revision does not pick up the GNU ADNS library

----------------------------------------------------------------

 Hello. I recently ( a few months ago ) installed Kubuntu 9.10/Karmic
on my machine
 and a few days ago I came upon a situation that needed Wireshark.
Seeing that the
 official Ubuntu package is rather old, I elected to compile it myself.

 The problem is that the Wireshark configure script will not pick up my system
 install of GNU ADNS whether or not I supply the --with-adns configure option.

 I've tried the official Ubuntu package to no avail. I've also tried compiling
 the ADNS 1.2 sources and installing them in /usr/local as well as
/usr/local/adns
 and explicitly specifying the directory using --with-adns=[dir] ; this fails
 as well.

 Here is information regarding my system install of the Ubuntu GNU
ADNS package :
