Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] stable release 1.6.1 is core dumped on Fedora 13, 15

[Roland Knall <rknall@xxxxxxxxx>]

An exception in packet.c can be nearly anything. The backtrace is what
I am looking for, as it would tell which dissector caused the
underlying issue.

Core dumps can't really be interpreted without the executable image that produced them and all the dynamically-loaded libraries (and, if the crash occurred in a run-time-loaded plugin, the plugin in question), including system libraries, it was using at the time - and at least some symbols are needed as well.
