           Summary: Wireshark 1.6.4 Build Failure
           Product: Wireshark
           Version: 1.6.4
          Platform: x86
        OS/Version: Linux (other)
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Blocker
          Priority: Low
         Component: Wireshark
        AssignedTo: bugzilla-admin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx
        ReportedBy: transparency@xxxxxxxxxxx


Build Information:
N/A
--
Wireshark, as of 1.6.4, no longer builds on my system.

The variable sel_ret is not declared in the function capture_loop_dispatch() in
dumpcap.c (it is inside an #ifndef USE_THREAD block) yet the code makes use of
it in that function (line 2544) "sel_ret = cap_pipe_select(ld->pcap_fd);"

The specific build error is:

==================
dumpcap.c: In function 'capture_loop_dispatch':
dumpcap.c:2544: error: 'sel_ret' undeclared (first use in this function)
dumpcap.c:2544: error: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
dumpcap.c:2544: error: for each function it appears in.)

==================


Note: used patch-wireshark-1.6.3-to-1.6.4.diff.bz2
