Hi list,

I just recompiled Ethereal from scratch, and was playing with a sample
capture I have, where I need to perform some "Decode as" operations. I
was surprised when I first didn't find HTTP in the list anymore, then
I remembered that plugin dissectors appeared at the very end of that
list and then I exhaustively searched for HTTP in the list of possible
protocols, where I eventually found it between COPS and DHCPFO.

Is this behavior intentional, and when was it introduced?

Best regards,

Olivier
