So, if you look for that test in the config.log files on the two systems (searching for inet_ntop in the file should find it), what is the output for the test in question in the two files?

Don't assume the problem is a missing package; it might be a bug in the configure script, so that it gets the wrong answer to the "do I have inet_ntop" test, possibly combined with:

a bug in Wireshark's attempt to provide its own inet_ntop() on systems where the configure script thinks it's missing.
