Actually, they got renamed - the "gtpv0.*" preferences are now just
"gtp.*" preferences, and the "gtp" or "gtp_" was removed from the part
after the "gtp." (as it was redundant).
So:
"gtpv0.gtpv0_port" is now "gtp.v0_port";
"gtpv0.gtpv1c_port" is now "gtp.v1c_port";
"gtpv0.gtpv1u_port" is now "gtp.v1u_port";
"gtpv0.gtp_dissect_tpdu" is now "gtp.dissect_tpdu";
"gtpv0.gtpv0_dissect_cdr_as" is now "gtp.v0_dissect_cdr_as";
"gtpv0.gtpv0_check_etsi" is now "gtp.v0_check_etsi";
"gtpv0.gtpv1_check_etsi" is now "gtp.v1_check_etsi".
Unfortunately, we don't currently have any convenient mechanism for a
dissector to specify that preference names - or preference *module*
names - should be remapped, so it's currently done with some code in
prefs.c.
That remapping should have been done, but there's a bug in the code
where it doesn't fully handle the mapping of "gtpv0." to "gtp."; I'll
check in a fix.

Or edit those lines, if you're actually using GTP; first find all
occurrences of "gtpv0.gtp_" and replace them with "gtp.", and then find
all occurrences of "gtpv0.gtp" and replace them with "gtp.".
But if you're *not* using GTP (so that you're willing to lose the
current settings of those GTP options), an easy way to remove those
preferences is to select "Preferences" from the "Edit" menu" and, in the
dialog box it pops up, click "Save" and then click "OK"; that will
rewrite the preferences file.
