Hi!
Today I tried to make wireshark-0.99.2, and it failed, see attached log.
Yesterday I succesfully maked ethereal-0.99.0.

Can anyone see why the build of wireshark-0.99.2 failed?

Looks like you don't have TLS installed but you do have the gcrypt library installed. You're running into bug 1006:

http://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1006

There's a (source) patch for the problem attached to that bug report. I think there may also be a 'configure' option to not use the gcrypt library but I'm not sure.
