Wireshark src or whireshark-devel rpm?

0

Hello,

I need to create a plugin for wireshark for a proprietary protocol.

I have a basic idea how to do it. But I need to know do I need to download all wireshark sources or I can use only the devel rpm?

We don't publish a "-devel" RPM though some Linux distributions do. So: your mileage in using such a package may vary.

Normally my recommendation is to develop against the source (either a tarball or--better yet--from git directly).
