configure: error: GTK+ 2.4 or later isn't available, so Wireshark can't
be compiled
I have the latest version of GTK+ installed. Could some one please tell
me what the issue is here?
In this case "the latest version of GTK+" is not really a good thing.
GTK3 is special in that they ripped out backwards compatability for a
lot of stuff, which means that applications (such as Wireshark)
frequently need to be *ported* to GTK3.
So, for now, stick with the latest GTK v2 you can get.
