Hi ,

I am trying to build wireshark from source in Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS and getting Cmake error  . I am following the instructions from the  link https://www.wireshark.org/docs/wsdg_html_chunked/ChSrcBuildFirstTime.html#_building_on_unix

1.Error details -I am getting the below error when I am issuing  cmake command  

uws@ubuntu:~/wireshark-ninja$ cmake -G Ninja ../wireshark
CMake Error: CMake was unable to find a build program corresponding to "Ninja".  CMAKE_MAKE_PROGRAM is not set.  You probably need to select a different build tool.
