checkout the source for wireshark 1.10.6

0

Checked out wireshark 1.12.9 and made a build on ubuntu 14.04. I saw there is an executable "reordercap". This reordercap can't run with the default wireshark (1.10.6) that comes with Ubuntu 14.04 installation: this "reordercap" requires libwiretap.so.4 and libwsutil.so.4 but the wireshark 1.10.6 installation comes with libwiretap.so.3 and libwsutil.so.3.

I would like to checkout the source for wireshark 1.10.6 and build a reordercap that works with the standard wireshark installation, but don't know where the source for 1.10.6 is. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Can't you just uninstall the distribution 1.10.6 and install the 1.12.9 you've built?

You can find it here. Linux from Scratch is another good source for Linux builds with instructions, but there are for 1.10.5 (they do have the 1.10.5 to 1.10.6 patch, though).
