- made it compile with --as-needed
This patch was taken from the opensuse wireshark.spec file.
No thanks go to the author and the package maintainers of
this package for not sending this upstream - it would have
made it into 1.2.0.
This has been an ongoing issue for a while, see:
https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=1677
The basic story has been: we didn't want libwireshark to depend on
libwiretap. We fixed it + broke it a few times (the bug was reopened
several times) but the latest breakage doesn't seem so easy to fix.
Maybe it's now acceptable to have libwireshark depend on libwiretap--in
that case the bug can be closed too.
