Wireshark-users: [Wireshark-users] how to convert ssl pcap to decrypted pcap file that can be use

I need to convert https pcap file into decrypted http file so i can use it with tcpflow to create separate files for each session.
how ever i am unable to achieve this , i am using the rsasnakeoil sample file of wireshark site for test.

when i dont use the -w flag i can see that output on console showing me http Encrypted Application decoded, however if i use a -w flag to decrypt it and open the decrypted data pcap file it still shows as Encrypted data.
shouldn't the new file be decrypted


output snippet if i dont use the "-w" flag

$~/work/wireshark-0.99.7/tshark -V   -r /tmp/rsasnakeoil2.cap -o "ssl.keys_list:127.0.0.1,443,http,/tmp/rsasnakeoil2.key" -o"ssl.debug_file:/tmp/debug.txt"  > cap.txt

-------------you can see that frame 11 application data is visible ---------------

now if use the "-w" flag and save the file and open the file in wire shark i assumed that the application data should have been decryptted

$~/work/wireshark-0.99.7/tshark -V   -r /tmp/rsasnakeoil2.cap -o "ssl.keys_list:127.0.0.1,443,http,/tmp/rsasnakeoil2.key" -o"ssl.debug_file:/tmp/debug.txt" -F libpcap -w - > /tmp/test

---------------here is what i see in wireshark gui for frame 11-------------------------------------------
