Hi Remy,

Hello,

I stumble upon this error in wireshark master. I use debian stretch with system packages installed from the apt-get build-dep tshark. Does it sound familiar?

        "/tmp/wireshark-master/epan/dissectors/packet-parlay.c:5381:27: warning: 'org_csapi_policy_TpPolicyConditionListType' defined but not used [-Wunused-const-variable=]",

It looks like iface_monitor.c should be modified so as to include net/if.h before netlink/msg.h. Could you give it a try?
