To reproduce the package please run this in a directory not managed by git:

dget https://launchpad.net/~wireshark-dev/+archive/ubuntu/stable/+files/wireshark_2.2.3+g57531cd-1~xenial1.dsc
&& \
cd wireshark-2.2.3+g57531cd/ && \
dpkg-buildpackage -b -us -uc -j10

The sbuild system the package is build may not even have git install
which could also affect the package generation.

Cheers,
Balint
