Hello:
We are trying to capture and do an analysis on our wireless traffic. Our APs can send packets to a machine where we want to capture them using wireshark for our analysis. We have a server with OEL7.6 that we want to use. Has anyone managed to install wireshark on Oracle Enterprise Linux? We tried to install using yum and getting the following errors. (--skip-broken doesn't work). We are unable to find other packages or ways to fix the dependencies. I am relatively new to linux administration and any help will be great

You could try using --skip-broken to work around the problem
