Installing wireshark/tshark on Linux Debian
Hi, I'm trying to install a specific version on Debian (12). When installing via apt-get install, the latest version is 4.0.11. However, I really need newer wireshark version (>= 4.2.2). How can I install it if it's not available there? I tried downloading and extracting the archive from https://www.wireshark.org/download/sr..., but I don't know how to proceed with that.
See the Unix Build Instructions
A core developer does provide up to date builds for Debian and Ubuntu but I don't know any more than that.
For Ubuntu see here.
@grahamb how can I use these builds? I don't see any instructions there :/
Heading a long way out of my comfort zone, I think you add the PPA to your apt sources, apt update and then the newer version should be available.
I think you can use
add-apt-repository
or similar.@grahamb Actually I tried that, it still installs 4.0.11 version
