Hi All,

Need help to install specific version of tshark.

sudo apt update sudo apt install software-properties-common apt-transport-https sudo add-apt-repository ppa:wireshark-dev/stable

apt install tshark=3.4.8-1~ubuntu21.04.0+wiresharkdevstable

Reading package lists... Done Building dependency tree
Reading state information... Done E: Version '3.4.8-1~ubuntu21.04.0+wiresharkdevstable' for 'tshark' was not found

Please let me know.

Thanks RK

You would have to add the Wireshark PPA on your system first.

This is an issue with your distribution and its packaging of Wireshark and not anything that the Wireshark project itself can solve.

Note there is no 21.04 version of Ubuntu, see the list of available versions here.

Using the Ubuntu Package Search page you can search for all tshark packages and then choose the most appropriate for your needs.

If you require a specific version of tshark that doesn't have a standard package then you will have to build it yourself.

There _was_ an 21.04 version of Ubuntu, it was called Hirsute, which is now EOL. The Wireshark PPA lists the mentioned package for that.

Follow the instructions in 'Adding this PPA to your system' and 'Technical details about this PPA' on the Wireshark PPA.

Info about the PPA here.

Maybe that should be added as a better answer than my original one.
