Hi,
I'm not that used to builds on windows, then maybe what happened is perfectly normal.
I fired up a dev version of wireshark and suddenly wireshark asked me if I wanted to update to a newer version. I have no idea of what would have happened if I accepted.
Shouldn't updates be disabled on builded versions? That is what I would expect. Or is it normal?
Thanks.
Dario.
Perfectly normal, it simply compares the version number installed to current stable (by default), no notice is taken if it's a custom build or a regular release.
The check can be disabled with the gui.update.enabled setting if you wish and the reference version can be set to development with gui.update.channel.
