How to add wireshark to Linux image for i.MX8.

[tan-k]

Hi,

We are testing i.MX8 with below environment.

[Environment]
Evaluation Kit : 8MMINILPD4-EVK (Connect HDMI cable, USB keyboard and USB mouse.)
Linux for i.MX : Linux 5.4.70_2.3.0

We would like to add "wireshark" in our OS image.
However, we encountered the error of do_configure when we build wireshark.

$ bitbake wireshark

This setting may cause this error?
Do we need to change configuration setting?
If so, what items do we change?

Could you please let us know how to build wireshark?

Any help would be appreciated.

Thank you.

We can build Wireshark successfully with new version.
Our solution is only to get wireshark_3.2.7.bb from Linux 5.10.35_2.0.0​ and replace old version with new version.

[tan-k]

To build wireshark for Qt application of GUI, we make directory "videoimx6vivantevideonode" and copy files manually.
Finally, we could build wireshark with attached recipe file.
We add "do_configure_prepend_class-target()".
We also can execute wireshark on weston.

Hi

I build it successfully,did you build imx-image-full?

Hi Zhiming,

Thank you for your reply.

You mean you add IMAGE_INSTALL_append = "wireshark" to local.conf, then build imx-image-full successfully?
In our environment, the error occurred when building wireshark.
Can you build only wireshark with "bitbake wireshark" successfully?
We cannot build in our environment.

Best regards,

[Zhiming_Liu]

I didn't add  IMAGE_INSTALL_append = "wireshark" to local.conf

Just bitbake wireshark after i made image

Thank you for your information.

We will do clean and try to build again.
Could you please let us know the setting "DISTRO"?
We set "DISTRO=fsl-imx-xwayland", and build.

Best regards,

[Zhiming_Liu]

Yes, it is DISTRO=fsl-imx-xwayland

[tan-k]

We cleaned and built again.
But we cannot build successfully.
We used "Linux 5.4.70_2.3.0" and set "MACHINE=imx8mmevk", "DISTRO= fsl-imx-xwayland".
Could you please let us know your version and settings?
Our error log is attached.
Do we need to change any settings or configure?

Best regards,
