install tshark on Shark Jack

[aclx]

Hi, I am trying to install tshark on my Shark Jack version 1.2.0 without any success. Can someone help me?

opkg probably hasn't got any "install candidate" for tshark (it's most likely difficult to get tshark binaries/packages for a bunch of OpenWrt releases, if any). You will need to compile it yourself if you want it on your Shark.

hi dark_pyrro,

can you please tell me how it works? Thanks in advanced!

You need to get the source code, set up an environment where you can build/compile the source for the relevant target architecture and create the binary needed. Note though that it's not for sure that the source code is compatible with the architecture used, so that has to be established as well. There is information available (OpenWrt web site and other places) that describes how to write and compile code and create binaries/packages.
