Wireshark · Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] Error while starting Wireshark 1.2.7

[Vinod Parameswaran <vinodp@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hello list,

I would like to seek your expert advice on an error that I see while trying to start Wireshark 1.2.7.

I have installed Wireshark on Fedora Core 12.

When I try to start Wireshark from the command-line, I see the following error:

wireshark: symbol lookup error: /usr/lib/libwireshark.so.0: undefined symbol: g_malloc_n

I could not get any help after trying to google for this particular error string.

Kindly share your thoughts on what could be causing this problem.

Thanks in advance for your time and advice.

regards
Vin
