[Bálint Réczey <balint.reczey@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

Could we list RESOLVED WONTFIX bugs in the default bugzilla bug list?
I think OPEN would not be the right state for this bug, but it would be useful to list it.

Cheers,
Balint

Please don't try to run wireshark as a privileged user.

Please see the following Debian bug for the solution:
http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=544482

The problem is tracked on Launchpad, too:
https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/wireshark/+bug/483106
