Comment # 6 on bug 8990 from
Just to add final comments:

I compiled and upgraded libpcap-1.4.0 (and for consistency, tcpdump-4.4.0), and
then re-compiled wireshark.  Indeed, this has solved the problem.  Thank you.

Also, thank you for the tip on running gdb via libtool.

Now, I would argue that compatibility/dependency information belongs in
README.linux.  You could add something like "requires libpcap-1.4.0" or
"requires libpcap linked against libnl-3".  Finally, it would be really nice if
`make check' could catch such problems.

Again, thanks you for your help.
