As a note, Redhat Enterprise Linux 6 is in Maintenance 2 support until late 2020, and only ships Glib 2.28 afaik.
Would this mean no Wireshark 2.6 support for EL6 based Linux distributions?
If EL6 support is still desirable, an option might be developing to the Glib 2.32 interface, but providing wrappers (polyfil) for the few bits of Glib used by Wireshark that are different or not available in 2.28.
