Wireshark · Wireshark-dev: Re: [Wireshark-dev] ERROR:packet.c:1531:heur_dissector_add: assertion failed: (sub_dissectors != NUL

@Jaap

Normally I would agree, but if you are using 1.6.x and wireshark can
not find it's plug-ins, the message can be thrown by the openSAFETY
dissector. It is fixed in svn, and the fix for 1.6.x is waiting in
bugzilla.

regards,
Roland
