How to configure lua after Wireshark was installed (Linux) - linux

I had Wireshark-1.10.14 on my Linux machine.
I installed Wireshark-2.6.12 (from source). Now when opening Wireshark,
I see that the Wireshark-2.6.12 is without Lua support (from the Wireshark > help about).
What do I need to do in order for the Wireshark to open with Lua?

You need to install the lua 5.1 or 5.2 development packages. Note that wireshark still does not support lua 5.3
On Debian/Ubuntu run
sudo apt-get install liblua5.2-dev
On Fedora run
sudo dnf install compat-lua-devel
Also you could find some helper scripts in the tools sub-directory that should install all of the development dependencies.
debian-setup
rpm-setup.sh
then in the wireshark's build directory execute
rm CMakeCache.txt
cmake ..

wget command not found on linux server

I have a linux server (completely new, web hosting, nothing is installed into it), and want to use a "wget" command. Currently, it is not found. Kernel version 2.6.32-896.16.1.lve1.4.54.el6.x86_64
I am completely new to linux, tried to solve this issue by myself, but couldn't do it. I log in into this linux server via PuTTY via my Windows OS laptop.
wget https://www.python.org/ftp/python/3.6.6/Python-3.6.6.tgz
To get "wget" to work, I will need to install it. I guess I will need to install first "sudo" and/or "apt" and/or "apt-get". But couldn't do it. Please give me a short list of steps in which order to install them.
Given your kernel version, it looks like your Linux distribution is CentOS 6 or RHEL 6. Try installing wget with this command:
yum install wget
You must be root when you run this command.
Incase you using Debian version of Linux, use the following:
sudo apt-get install wget
From kernel version, it looks like you are using RHEL/Centos 6.
Please check -
https://centos.pkgs.org/6/centos-x86_64/wget-1.12-10.el6.x86_64.rpm.html
If the mentioned dependencies exist in your system, you can directly fire the rpm command
rpm command guide -
https://docs.fedoraproject.org/ro/Fedora_Draft_Documentation/0.1/html/RPM_Guide/ch02s03.html
If it doesn't work, you need to use yum command. (You need to configure yum command first, if not configured already)
yum install wget
To configure yum command in centos6 -

Note - you need to be root user for above activities.

Yum cannot find the package I want to install

I am trying to a simple command sudo yum install SDL2. I know that this package exists as per the SDL website:
Red Hat-based systems (including Fedora) can simply do "sudo yum install SDL2" to get the library installed system-wide, or "sudo yum install SDL2-devel" to get headers and other build requirements ready for compiling your own SDL programs.
However, when I try to execute my command, I get the following:
Setting up Install Process
No package SDL2 available.
Error: Nothing to do
I am using Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 5.3 (Tikanga). How can I go about getting yum to locate this package?
ONLY SDL is available on redhat 5.3
uname -r
2.6.32-573.12.1.el6.centos.plus.x86_64
yum search sdl-devel --verbose
SDL-devel.x86_64 : Files needed to develop Simple DirectMedia Layer applications
Repo : base
With Fedora 26, SDL2 is available in repo fedora
uname -r
4.11.0-2.fc26.x86_64
dnf --disablerepo="*" --enablerepo="fedora" search sdl2-devel --verbose

QT version is not properly installed, please run make install

I installed QT-creator from a downloaded copy of qt-creator-linux-x86-opensource-2.6.1.bin using
sudo ./qt-creator-linux-x86-opensource-2.6.1.bin
in Ubuntu 11.04
I tried to add QT versions in QT-Creator/Build/QT-versions configuration and it asked for a qmake executable.
I installed it using:
sudo apt-get install qt4-devel
which deployed qmake in /usr/bin/qmake
I selected it in QT-Creator/Build/QT-versions configuration as manual, Qt-4.7.2 (System) /usr/bin/qmake-qt4 but QT version is not properly installed, please run make install message appears and I can't use it in QT-Creator/Build/Kits configuration.
How can I solve the problem and configure qmake for Qt-creator use in project creation?
This solved the problem for me on recent Ubuntu version:
sudo apt-get install qt5-default
Just so this no longer shows up as unanswered:
To install all qt-devel libraries, use
sudo apt-get install qt4-dev-tools libqt4-dev libqt4-core libqt4-gui
In Linux Mint 18.3 (32 bit) it also solved the problem:
sudo apt-get install qt5-default
So that Qt5 (5.5.1) was installed ready-to-use as a kit in QtCreator.
Although to install the Qt 5.9.0 version I had to explicitly download the package from https://download.qt.io/official_releases/qt/5.9/5.9.0/single/ (2 Gb unpacked) .
Then I had to run this command in terminal:
cd /home/username/Downloads/qt-everywhere-opensource-src-5.9.0
Then this command:
./configure
Then this
make
I was having this problem even after sudo apt-get install qt5-default (it was already installed).
However the version of QMake I had pointed to was in the Linux Processor SDK (02.00.02.11)
I fixed it by sourcing the environment setup before running qtcreator. The following shell script did it for me:
source /opt/ti/processor-sdk-linux-am335x-evm-02.00.02.11/linux-devkit/environment-setup
# substitute the location where the SDK is installed.
~/Qt5.9.0/Tools/QtCreator/bin/qtcreator -block
# substitute the location where QTCreator is installed

How to install libmysql under Cygwin?

I am trying to build db-mysql extension for NodeJS under Cygwin. The problem is, that it requires libmysql development libraries and include files. I have no idea how to install (and where to get) this stuff to work with Cygwin. Under Ubuntu i would write something like this:
sudo apt-get install libmysqlclient-dev
But this is not possible under Cygwin. Also there is no available libmysql package when I run Cygwin's setup.exe. Does anybody know how to solve this isue?
I have installed wamp under Windows which includes MySQL database. I would like to use databases from that installation under Cygwin, is that possible?
Thanks
It's available from Cygwin Ports, a large repository of additional Cygwin packages that can be installed through Cygwin's setup.exe.

Adobe Air native installer Linux - Dependency is not satisfiable

I created native installers for my air application successfully under MacOS and Windows.
With Ubuntu 10 I am able to create a .deb package, but when I launch it opens the Ubuntu software center showing error:
Dependency is not satisfiable: adobeair (>= 2.5.0.0)
I thought native installer should be able to download the proper adobe air version if available (2.5.1 seems available as deb package). If I install air for linux 2.5.1 from adobe website my application launches fine.
Did anyone experience the same issue?
Thanks in advance for any help
Paolo
Unfortunately, many years late "Adobe AIR for Linux is no longer supported." following what adobe page says. Using the "AIR archive" is possible to get unsupported versions, the 2.6.0 version is the most recent available. If you need to install a program that require a newer version of it, you might go to Virtual box with a Windows guest.
For version 2.6.0 the recommend steps for Ubuntu 16.10 are:
for 32bit machine
wget -O adobe-air_i386.deb http://drive.noobslab.com/data/apps/AdobeAir/adobeair_2.6.0.2_i386.deb
sudo dpkg -i adobe-air_i386.deb
sudo apt-get install -f && rm adobe-air_i386.deb
for 64bit machine
wget -O adobe-air_amd64.deb http://drive.noobslab.com/data/apps/AdobeAir/adobeair_2.6.0.2_amd64.deb
sudo dpkg -i adobe-air_amd64.deb
sudo apt-get install -f && rm adobe-air_amd64.deb
The recommend steps for Ubuntu 16.04/14.04/12.04/Linux Mint 18/17/13 (both extracted from here):
wget -O adobe-air.sh http://drive.noobslab.com/data/apps/AdobeAir/adobe-air.sh
chmod +x adobe-air.sh;sudo ./adobe-air.sh
What version of the adobeair package is available from the Ubuntu repositories?
A .deb is just an archive and the dependencies have to be available from the repositories the system is configured to use. It can't resolve the dependency by downloading it from some specific location you know of but the system is not configured to use.
If the needed version of the package is not available from the Ubuntu repositories then your only options are to reconfigure the system to use an additional repository that does have the needed dependency before you try to install your package, or download and manually install the dependency before you try to to install your package.
Try to install itdpkg -i --force-architecture adobeair.deb
