To put it a bit more precisely:
If you're using a pre-built version of Wireshark:
If you're using the Windows or Mac OS X version (those are the only
platforms for which we distribute binaries ourselves), PortAudio is
included.
If you're using a packaged binary for some other platform, it depends
on who's doing the packaging; I can't speak for various Linux
distributions or any *BSD OSes, for example.
If you're building Wireshark yourself:
If you're building on Windows, the Windows build procedure will
download Portaudio and build with it.
If you're building on UN*X (OS X, Linux, *BSD, Solaris, etc.), you
need to install the PortAudio library; the configure script *should*
find it, at least if it's installed under /usr or /usr/local, and
build with it.
