Wireshark-dev: [Wireshark-dev] Wireshark won't compile on PPC64 boxes

Hi all,

 I've recently reported following bug

https://bugs.wireshark.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=4346

The wireshark package cannot be build on ppc64 due to ppc64 ABI limitation and RRC dissector source file which contains too many string constants. So far I haven't been successful to workaround this issue so I'd like to know if somebody is looking at this problem or even working on some solution.

Radek
