Hi!
Thanks for looking into this.

I run 'debian-setup' with '--install-all', so upon running '--install-test-deps' nothing additional got installed.
['debian-setup-MY.sh' is just modified debian-setup.sh so it does not check VERSION_ID, as it wouldn't get a reply it can deal with, since I am on Debian Testing as I wrote in the first mail, and instead just install QT6 version pkgs.]
Here the last lines with the command:
/some-dir/wireshark/tools/debian-setup-MY.sh --install-test-deps
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 29 not upgraded.
*** Optional packages not installed. Rerun with --install-optional to have them.
*** Debian packages build deps not installed. Rerun with --install-deb-deps to have them.
So trying:
/some-dir/wireshark/tools/debian-setup-MY.sh --install-optional --install-deb-deps
But that got me in a loop new.
Here the last lines (nothing additionally got installed):
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 29 not upgraded.
*** Test deps not installed. Rerun with --install-test-deps to have them.
Trying without '--install-optional':
/some-dir/wireshark/tools/debian-setup-MY.sh --install-deb-deps |& tee ~mr/LOG_n0/debian-setup-MY.sh_$(date +%y%m%d_%H%M)
The script still got me looping.
Here the last lines:
0 upgraded, 0 newly installed, 0 to remove and 29 not upgraded.
*** Optional packages not installed. Rerun with --install-optional to have them.

The 'dpkg-buildpackage' nocheck option is unappealing to me. I'll try and see what pytest will tell me, next.
