Perfect! ✅ Task completed successfully
Summary
I've successfully created install and launch scripts for Wireshark on Linux and verified they work correctly:
Deliverables:
- Install Script (
install.sh) - Uses
apt-getpackage manager for clean installation - Updates package index first
- Installs wireshark and all dependencies (Qt5, libpcap, lua, etc.)
-
Uses non-interactive mode to avoid prompts
-
Launch Script (
launch.sh) - Simply launches wireshark in the background
-
Clean and idempotent
-
Extract Metadata Script (
extract_metadata.sh) - Dynamically extracts binary path using
which wireshark - Derives binary name from the path with
basename - Extracts display name from the
.desktopfile - Gets version from
wireshark --version - Finds all icon files in standard Linux icon directories
- Outputs valid JSON with all metadata
Verification Results:
✅ Screenshot: Wireshark 3.6.2 visibly open with the Welcome screen
✅ Binary: /usr/bin/wireshark
✅ Display Name: Wireshark (extracted from desktop file)
✅ Version: 3.6.2
✅ Icons: 8 files found (multiple sizes and SVG format)
✅ Installation: Exit code 0 - Success
The application is fully functional and ready for network packet capture and analysis!
