Summary: Starting wireshark crashes if register-dissector.py
isn't found
Product: Wireshark
Version: SVN
Platform: Other
OS/Version: All
Status: NEW
Severity: Major
Priority: Low
Component: Wireshark
AssignedTo: wireshark-bugs@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
ReportedBy: jmayer@xxxxxxxxx

Wireshark build with python support.
--
Install wireshark and remove register-dissector.py.
Now, wireshark crashes without a hint to why when starting.
In my case the last lines of the strace output look like this:
open("/opt/test/lib/wireshark/python//register-dissector.py",
O_RDONLY|O_LARGEFILE) = -1 ENOENT (No such file or directory)
--- SIGSEGV (Segmentation fault) @ 0 (0) ---
+++ killed by SIGSEGV +++
