the laatest version i have in ubuntu 21.10 is 3.4.7
I wonder how do i get manually 3.6.3. Wny no dev-latest Repos created?

Looks like they move on once a new version of Ubuntu is out:
Ubuntu packages -Package wireshark
It's "not that difficult" to build - Build environment setup
The magic is in tools/debian-setup.sh
which will install the packages needed for a build system.
Source is available on the Download page. Previous versions here.
hmmm. unlike package installation, the installation via build doesn't work smoothly:
On Debian and Debian derivatives such as Ubuntu, if you have installed Wireshark from a package, try running sudo dpkg-reconfigure wireshark-common selecting "<Yes>" in response to the question Should non-superusers be able to capture packets? adding yourself to the "wireshark" group by running sudo usermod -a -G wireshark {your username} and then logging out and logging back in again.
However, i did both reconfiguration and adding myself to group. What's wrong with manual installation?
nothing works from above:
ice@ice-ubuntu:~:19982_8$ ls -la /usr/bin/dumpcap
-rwxrwxr-- 1 root wireshark 121344 июл 15 2021 /usr/bin/dumpcap
getcap /usr/bin/dumpcap
/usr/bin/dumpcap
cap_net_admin,cap_net_raw=eip
ice@ice-ubuntu:~:19987_13$ whoami
ice
ice@ice-ubuntu:~:19979_4$ cat /etc/group | grep wire
wireshark:x:137:ice
relogin was done
seems i understand the issue. Ugly manual installation.
root@ice-ubuntu:/usr/local/bin# ls -la dumpcap -rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 382648 апр 11 20:54 dumpcap
they don't give a damn that dumpcap in /usr/local/bin should be adjusted as well.
So, do a repo w/o these manual things that noone does anymore for at least 10 years!

The obvious quote here is "Use the Source Luke". I assume someone might put in the works to build binaries.But its's a daunting task.
