Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] Finding init.lua after build from source

Hi All,

 

 I built from source and am launching using:

 

WIRESHARK_RUN_FROM_BUILD_DIRECTORY=1 ./wireshark

 

 And I placed my lua dissector in:

 

~/.wireshark/plugins/mydissector.lua

 

 However this cannot work because there is no init.lua. It doesn't exist in the build directory.

 

 I have also tried make install, but then there is still no init.lua in \usr\local\share\wireshark.

 

 I also tried running make-init-lua.pl, but this gives an error:

 

   '' is not a directory at ./epan/wslua/make-init-lua.pl line 33

 

 Could someone tell me how to generate init.lua?

 

Thanks,

 Chris
