debian 10 maps to "Buster"
wireshark-common:buster is wireshark-common (2.6.20-0+deb10u1)
which does not include sharkd
(filelist)
The debian wireshark changelog shows that sharkd
was added in Wireshark 3.0.7 and newer:
wireshark (3.0.7-1) unstable; urgency=medium [ Balint Reczey ] * Build-depend on libglib2.0-dev. This is needed for backports for example to Ubuntu 16.04 and earlier releases. * Ship sharkd in wireshark-common (Closes: #943403) * New upstream version 3.0.7 - security fixes: - CMS dissector crash. (CVE-2019-19553) * Update symbols files
debian 11 (Bullseye) ships wireshark-common (3.4.4-1) which include sharkd
(filelist)
But it looks like sharkd
only supports tcp:
sockets on Windows.
sharkd_daemon.c:
#ifdef _WIN32 /* for windows support TCP sockets */ # define SHARKD_TCP_SUPPORT #else /* for other system support only local sockets */ # define SHARKD_UNIX_SUPPORT #endif
Windows:
C:\Development\wsbuild64\run\RelWithDebInfo>sharkd -a tcp:127.0.0.1:4446 Sharkd listening on: tcp:127.0.0.1:4446
The "Usage:" screen has an example based on the platform it's compiled for:
#ifdef SHARKD_UNIX_SUPPORT fprintf(output, " - unix:/tmp/sharkd.sock - listen on unix file /tmp/sharkd.sock\n"); #endif #ifdef SHARKD_TCP_SUPPORT fprintf(output, " - tcp:127.0.0.1:4446 - listen on TCP port 4446\n"); #endif

There is not a man page for sharkd
.
Current documentation is on the wiki page and needs a blurb about platform support.
